Universal Avionics has landed a deal with Hawker Beechcraft to provide flat-panel glass display and flight management system upgrades in the Hawker 700B. The retrofit package will replace existing flight and engine analog instruments with Universal’s UNS-1Fw FMS units, EFI-890R flat-panel displays and application server units (ASU) linked to UCDT-III electronic-flight-bag displays.

A 22-week initial installation program began at the end of June at Hawker Beechcraft’s Chester, England facility to identify potential installation hurdles in the Hawker model, first introduced in the late 1970s.
