Product Description
The FIELD AVIATION EFI-890R Flight Deck Modernization is a state of the art replacement of the existing legacy mechanical (EFIS/analogue) cockpit instruments with five Universal Avionics EFI-890R high definition LCD flat panel displays. Four of the displays present the pilots with navigation information and the fifth (centre display) presents engine information. The system provides full redundancy by allowing information to be switched between the five displays.
Prefabricated integration kits, with step-by-step instructions, can be installed during scheduled maintenance at an approved facility.
The Flight Deck upgrade is specifically designed for the retrofit market. Over thirty (30) existing mechanical instruments and indicators from the instrument panel alone are replaced with five LCD displays and one advanced stand-by indicator, in the basic upgrade kit. There is also an option to replace up to eight OEM control units with two new multifunction Radio Control Units.
FAA and EASA STCs are also available.
