The invention is a real-time takeoff and landing performance monitoring system for an aircraft which provides a pilot with graphic and metric information to assist in decisions related to achieving rotation speed within the safe zone of a runway, or stopping the aircraft on the runway after landing or takeoff abort. By comparing the present performance of the aircraft with a predicted nominal performance based upon given conditions, performance deficiencies are detected by the system. The system provides a head-down display and a head-up display. The head-up display is projected onto a partially reflective transparent surface through which the pilot views the runway. Hence, the system supplies the pilot with critical status information while allowing the pilot to continue to view the runway.
