Well, when I download something to a target platform I was wondering if it's
possible to do an incremental download afterwards. I'm hoping to speed up
the process, but I've tried everything from teh download button and sync
button but it seems I have to exit the debugger then re-download to the
target platform. Is this normal?

On the other side, you have the hardware spec for the HUD itself, that tells you how to set up graphics and such on the HUD. (If you're simulating a HUD on a PC, then you have the PC graphics library, or maybe X-Windows. Whatever.) The mechanization group should be telling you what they want displayed and how, and what the controls should do. Additionally, your systems engineer should have written a requirements specification. The rest is a Simple Matter of Programming. SERIOUSLY: Liberate yourself a copy of the user's manual for an existing HUD, and figure out CONCEPTUALLY how you'd do it. TRADITIONALLY, you're going to have vertical scales for altitude and air speed, maybe with annotations and extra markings to show "interesting" values, a horizontal scale for heading, a flight path marker to show exactly where the aircraft velocity vector is going, and horizon lines (one for the horizon, then lines above and below to give convenient markings for various climb or descent angles. ALTERNATIVELY: Buy a copy of the latest version of "Falcon", the computer game. It will give you a very good introduction to the F-16 avionics, including the HUD. If any of the terms "altitude", "air speed", or "heading" gave you any trouble, you need to get some basic education in flying.
