Esterline CMC Electronics is showing off its PilotView crew information system for the first time at NBAA 2014. Working in conjunction with the PilotView aircraft information server, the crew information system provides integrated cockpit connectivity, complete with a tablet interface. The system is compatible with the PilotView electronic flight bag.

The latter is standard on a range of aircraft, such as the ATR42 and ATR72; Dassault Falcon 900, 2000 and 7X; Embraer Legacy 600/650 and E-170/190; and Bombardier CRJ700/900/1000. More than 30 STCs are in place for retrofits applicable to aircraft ranging in size from the Challenger 600 to the Boeing 747.

Also on show here on CMC’s display (Booth 2213) is a cost-effective LCD display system available as a retrofit to replace older CRT screens. Offering significant readability and reliability, the new CMA-6800 screen matches older CRTs in form, fit and function with reduced weight and power requirements. It interfaces with existing EFIS controllers and select panels and the original symbol generators.
