A method of visualizing track and balance performance includes receiving data indicating track and balance of a rotary blade and receiving a constraint. A first performance level based on the data is determined. A second performance level based on the data and the constraint is determined. The first and second performance levels are displayed on a display unit for visualizing differences between the first and second performance levels.

1. A method of adjusting track and balance of a rotary blade, comprising: receiving data indicating track and balance of a rotary blade of interest;determining a first performance level based on the received data, wherein the first performance level is indicative of track and balance performance of the rotary blade of interest;receiving a constraint, wherein the constraint includes a one or more user-selected trimming adjustment for exclusion from a constrained adjustment solution provided by the adjustment algorithm;determining a second performance level based on the received constraint and the received data, wherein the second performance level is representative of expected track and balance performance by trimming the rotary blade of interest according to a constrained adjustment solution provided by the adjustment algorithm;displaying on a display unit the first and second performance levels for visualizing differences between the first and second performance levels; andtrimming the rotary blade using the constrained adjustment solution. 2. A method as recited in claim 1, wherein the first performance level is indicative of track and balance of a helicopter rotary blade. 3. A method as recited in claim 1, wherein the first performance level is indicative of a current track and balance condition of the rotary blade of interest. 4. A method as recited in claim 1, wherein the second performance level is unconstrained expected track and balance performance level of the rotary blade of interest. 5. A method as recited in claim 1, wherein the second performance level is a predetermined track and balance goal performance of the rotary blade of interest. 6. A method as recited in claim 1, wherein the second performance level is a differently constrained expected performance level of the rotary blade of interest. 7. A method as recited in claim 6, wherein the differently constrained expected performance level excludes the received constraint. 8. A method as recited in claim 6, wherein the differently constrained expected performance level is within a track and balance goal performance level of the rotary blade of interest. 9. A method as recited in claim 1, wherein the determining includes normalizing first and second performance levels to a goal performance level of the rotary blade of interest. 10. A method as recited in claim 1, wherein the displaying includes displaying the first and second performance levels of at least one of track and balance in two or more flight regimes. 11. A method as recited in claim 10, wherein the displaying includes displaying first and second performance levels in a polar coordinate system, wherein distance from the center of the system corresponds to performance level and angle corresponds to the flight regime. 12. A method as recited in claim 1, wherein displaying includes displaying first and second track performance levels for each of a plurality of rotary blades with respect to a flat track. 13. A method as recited in claim 1, wherein displaying includes displaying first and second performance levels separately for each of two or more sensors. 14. A method as recited in claim 1, wherein displaying includes displaying a performance flag, the performance flag being associated with a flight regime and performance level and having an area relating performance to an implied target value. 15. A system for adjusting track and balance of a rotary blade, comprising: a processor operably connected to a memory and a display unit, wherein the memory has instructions recorded thereon that, when read by the processor, cause the processor to: receive data indicative of track and balance performance of a rotary blade;determine a first performance level based on the data, wherein the first performance level is indicative of track and balance performance of the rotary blade of interest;receive a constraint, wherein the constraint includes a one or more user-selected trimming adjustment for exclusion from a constrained adjustment solution provided by the adjustment algorithm;determine a second performance level based on the constraint and the data, wherein the second performance level is representative of expected track and balance performance by trimming the rotary blade of interest according to a constrained adjustment solution provided by the adjustment algorithm;determine a third performance level based level on the data, wherein the third performance level is differently constrained than the second performance level;display on the display unit the first, second and third performance levels for visualizing performance differences between the first, second and third performance levels,wherein the display includes a display of the first, second, and third performance levels in a polar coordinate system where distance from the center of the system corresponds to performance level and angle corresponds to flight regime; andproviding the constrained adjustment solution for trimming the rotary blade. 16. A method of adjusting track and balance of a rotary blade, comprising: receiving data indicating track and balance of a rotary blade of interest;determining a first performance level based on the received data, wherein the first performance level is indicative of unconstrained track and balance performance of the rotary blade of interest using an unconstrained adjustment solution provided by an adjustment algorithm;receiving a constraint, wherein the constraint includes a one or more user-selected trimming adjustment for exclusion from a constrained adjustment solution provided by the adjustment algorithm;determining a second performance level based on the received constraint and the received data, wherein the second performance level is representative of expected track and balance performance following trimming the rotary blade according to a constrained adjustment solution;displaying on a display unit the first and second performance levels for visualizing differences between the first and second performance levels; andtrimming the rotary blade using the constrained adjustment solution, wherein the second performance level indicates a smaller reduction in vibration than the first performance level.
