G650 sets bar higher with EVAS
EVAS Worldwide recently delivered its first set of prototype cockpit smoke protection units for the new Gulfstream G650 to the Gulfstream factory in Savann

EVAS Worldwide recently delivered its first set of prototype cockpit smoke protection units for the new Gulfstream G650 to the Gulfstream factory in Savannah, Georgia. Engineering and design teams are working to ensure that the EVAS systems are ready and integrated for the G650 test, prototype and production conforming aircraft.

The G650, due to enter service in the second half of 2012, will have the Emergency Vision Assurance System (EVAS) as standard equipment, allowing pilots to see in continuous dense smoke. The G650 will be the first factory-delivered aircraft to meet FAR Part 25 recommended standards for cockpit smoke (AC 25.9a).
