Real-time graphical weather, text and datalink radar via the Iridium satellite network is one of the most recent features added to the PilotView 8.4-inch CMA-1100 MkII and 10.4-inch CMA-1410 electronic flight bags (EFBs) produced by Esterline CMC Electronics.

CMC (Booth No. 670) is offering the WSI weather products with the Avidyne MLX770 two-way datalink receiver. The Avidyne network provides seamless operation for graphical weather and radar in Europe, Australia and North America. WSI Weather, based on the Iridium satellite system, also provides worldwide winds and temperatures aloft, lightning, metars and tafs and satellite infrared. The hardware adds approximately four pounds to a CMC EFB installation; it also provides text messaging and flight-tracking ability.
