First Corporate HUD Shown by Thomson-CSF Sextant A pre-certification peek at a business aircraft HUD can be taken at Booth 3730, where Thomson-CSF Sextant has a live demonstration of the HFDS system currently nearing the conclusion of flight testing on a Global Express at Bombardier's Wichita facility. Offering the largest field of view in its class, the HFDS is the first in a new family optimized for business aircraft and regional airliners. It makes essential data instantly available to pilots--of key importance during adverse weather landings and takeoffs or in an emergency. The HFDS for the Global Express is based on proven technologies, with built-in growth potential for improved Category III operations and the display of overlaid imagery from an enhanced vision system. Although fully integrated in the Canadian long-range jet, HFDS can be acquired as a stand-alone upgrade for other aircraft. |
