Chelton EFIS Brochure

lntroducing The
World's First and Only
3-D Synthetic Vision EFIS
I t almost defies belief, but it's true. Your
I aircraft can now have a flight deck more
advancedthan the latest state-of-the-artairliner's.The FlightLogic'"
SyntheticVision EFlSfrom
Chelton Flight Systemsemploysbreakthrough
technologyto deliver never-before-possible
situationalawarenessand ground-breaking
automatedflight managementcapabilities.
And it's availablefor installationright now,
not yearsin the future.
The FlightlogicEFIScombinesadvancedHUD
symbologywith real-timeforward-looking 3-D
terrainto createa PrimaryFlightDisplaywith
capabilitiesunmatchedby any other product in
the world. The result is tremendouslyenhanced
awareness,unprecedentedsafety,and dramaticallyreducedpilot workload.
In testing this revolutionarytechnology over the
courseof 945 flights, NASAdocumentedan
85% reductionin FlightTrainingErrors(FTE),
which translatesinto a sevenfold
improvement in safety.
With the remarkablesituationalawareness
of the Flightlogic SyntheticVision EFIS,never
again will a momentarymiscalculation
needlesslyexposeyou to danger.Neveragain
will one of the leadingcausesof aviation
accidents-spatialdisorientation-rob you of
confidencein your instruments.Neveragain
will darknessor weather causeyou anxiety
as you fly an unfamiliarapproach.

Primary Flight Display
The cornerstoneof the FlightlogicEF|Sis the
revolutionaryPrimaryFlightDisplay(PFD).
The core conceptof the PFDis advancedHUD
symbologyoverlayinga real-timeforwardlooking3-D terrain display.The PFDcombines
input from an air data computer(ADC),a
solid-state
strap-downinertialAHR5
(Attitude/HeadingReferenceSystem),and a
GPSWAAS receiver,all of which are included
in the FlightLogicsystem.The PFDfeatures
flight path markersymbologywith highwayin-the-sky(HITS)for all departure,enroute,
and approachprocedures.
The flight path
marker,which displaysyour projectedflight
path, allowsyou to guide your aircraft
through the HITS(a 3-D seriesof "boxes" on
the screen)easily,safely,and accuratelyto the
destination.

Integrated
Terrain Awareness and Warning (TAWSI System
In an effort to minimizeControlled
Flight Into Terrain(CF|T)accidents,
the FAA has mandatedinstallation
of TAWSon all turbine-poweredaircraft configuredwith six or more
passengerseatsin the U.S.Extensive
FAA and NTSBstudiesshow that the
