The GEN-X electronic flight bag (EFB) made by DAC International and displayed at NBAA Booth No. 2666 attained parts manufacturer approval (PMA) from the FAA, the company announced.

Mike Crouch, president of DAC International, said the GEN-X is priced competitively with Class 2 products and meets Class 2 EFB standards, yet can also be installed as a Class 3 device for easy removal. The GEN-X supports Windows-based applications and a suite of EFB functions that are controlled almost entirely with the unit’s touch screen. The EFB’s only hard buttons are for power and brightness control. Its hard drive is rated to 50,000 feet.
