Synthetic-vision flight presentations are about to become a ubiquitous presence in dozens of business aircraft models thanks to certification programs that have been completed recently and additional test programs which are about to get under way.
Universal Avionics was the first avionics maker to certify synthetic vision in a transport-category business jet when it gained approval in the Challenger 601 for the terrain-based 3-D depiction of its Vision 1 system, which replaces a traditional ADI with a computer-generated view of terrain and airports. The presentation was revolutionary in that it brought a full-color, video-game-like visual scene to the cockpit displays for the first time.
