Abstract: The pilot and aviation operation guarantee staff need to grasp the flight dynamics in time, the simulation is one of the most intuitive representation of flight dynamics. Traditional flight simulation is the two-dimensional simulation, It cannot display the attitude information of the aircraft. This study is based on the research of flight holding pattern, using GoogleEarth to implements flight holding pattern for 3d simulation, and discusses the technology route to realization of the 3d simulation, provides reference for the development of automatic flight simulation.
