Thomas Global Systems, a specialist in the design, production and support of avionics display systems technology, has signed a partnership agreement with Hawker Pacific to distribute Thomas Global’s plug-and-play LCD cockpit displays in the Asia Pacific region. The agreement grants Hawker Pacific rights for the distribution of Thomas Global’s CRT-to-LCD cockpit display upgrade products for business and general aviation aircraft.

Thomas Global has developed CRT-to-LCD cockpit display upgrade products based on its proprietary Thomas ADA 2.0 adaptive display architecture, a plug-and-play solution for operators of legacy CRT displays. The upgrades, which offer lower costs and increased reliability compared to aging CRT-based displays, eliminate the CRT-obsolescence threat. The LCD upgrades offer instant conversion with no downtime for installation and do not require crew retraining or changes to existing cockpit panels or wiring.

Thomas Global Systems offers plug-and-play LCD cockpit displays for Beechcraft King Airs and 1900Ds; Embraer EMB-120s: Fairchild Metro-23s Dassault Falcons; Hawker 800s, IAI Astra 1125s and a range of other business and general aviation aircraft.
