Honeywell (Booth N5100) is expanding its Primus Elite cockpit offerings with new FAA certifications for Bombardier, Cessna, Dassault, Embraer and Fairchild-Dornier aircraft, including an LCD display upgrade option. Honeywell also has received regulatory approval for its Primus Elite advanced features software upgrade that includes synthetic vision.
The new Primus Elite STC allows operators to gradually update their systems rather than opt for a full cockpit upgrade up front. Operators can first install new Honeywell DU875 liquid-crystal displays (LCD) which are more reliable and lighter than the DU870 cathode ray tubes they replace. Once the displays are upgraded, pilots will have access to electronic charts, maps, graphical weather, and video inputs via Primus Elite. Honeywell has certified the Primus Elite advanced features software upgrade via STC. The update is available to operators with the new LCD displays and Primus Elite cockpit upgrade, providing access to synthetic vision, 3-D color image of runways, and terrain and obstacles.
New STCs include replacing the DU870 CRT with the DU875 LCD on the Bombardier Global Express and Learjet 40/45; Cessna Citation X, Bravo, Excel, Ultra and Encore; Dassault Falcon 900/EX; Dornier 328; and Embraer Legacy 600/650. New STCs for the Primus Elite advanced features software upgrade for the Dassault Falcon 900C/EX platforms includes synthetic vision. Primus Elite is currently certified and available on aircraft including the Bombardier Global XRS and Global 5000, Fairchild-Dornier DO-328, and Dassault Falcon 900C. Primus Elite advanced features is available for the Gulfstream GIV, GIV-SP, and GV.
Separately, Honeywell's BendixKing division is making ADS-B solutions available for more aircraft through several new offerings. ADS-B Out is now available via a new upgrade for aircraft using the Communication, Navigation, and Identification (CNI) 5000 integrated avionics system, giving operators of Cessna CitationJet 525, 525A and 550 Bravo aircraft an expeditious way to meet the new federal mandate.
For helicopters needing an ADS-B solution, BendixKing is distributing the ACSS MST 70B transponder. The transponder recently completed helicopter vibration testing and is ready for certification for commercial helicopters. BendixKing already is the exclusive distributor of the transponder for the military and business jet market. The transponder is designed for slide-in installation using BendixKing MST 67A mounting racks and connectors. The transponder already has STC approval for fixed wing installations from the FAA, TCCA, and EASA and is available for installation at any Honeywell or BendixKing dealer.
