A system and method utilizing an existing boresighted HUD and a camera (106) to determine the transformational and rotational relationships between the camera image and the boresighted HUD image of an aircraft to properly orient the camera (106) for landing operations. Known boresight features are identified in a HUD image and are related to the same boresight features in a camera image, and transformations are applied to align pixels in the camera image to the pixel locations of the boresight features in the HUD image. Object recognition algorithms may be employed to identify the boresight features in the camera image.
