Falcon 7Xs Get Netflix-ready Venue 4K Smart Monitors

Collins Aerospace’s Venue smart monitor integrated with Airshow HD is entering service on a Dassault Falcon 7X next month, marking the debut of an “all-in-one” entertainment solution that delivers 4K resolution, flight information, and streaming content to business aircraft cabins. Dassault Falcon Jet’s Little Rock, Arkansas service center will install two of the units into the aircraft’s cabin bulkhead.

Consolidating Airshow HD cabin entertainment into a single unit, the system is designed to reduce hardware complexity, lower power consumption, and simplify maintenance requirements. The monitor is scalable for installation across aircraft ranging from very light jets to bizliners.

“The activation of the first Venue smart monitor with Airshow HD marks a significant shift in business aviation in-flight entertainment, bringing pristine resolutions, streaming content, and an enhanced user interface to more jets than ever before,” said Craig Bries, v-p and general manager of commercial avionics at Collins Aerospace.

Included with the system is a mobile application that extends Airshow HD access throughout the cabin. Collins Aerospace is offering the monitor in five sizes with touchscreen and ultra-high-definition options.
