Owners and operators of Hawker 800 twinjets equipped with Honeywell SPZ 8000 autopilots now have an upgrade path to a Universal Avionics InSight integrated flight deck. Southeast Aerospace has amended its original supplemental type certificate (STC) for Hawker 800s with Collins autopilots by adding the SPZ 8000-equipped variants.

InSight adds three large displays and touchscreen controllers, as well as dual Universal UNS 1FW flight management systems with WAAS LPV approaches, georeferenced radio tuning, and a Mid-Continent Instrument Standby Attitude Module backup display. It also eliminates more than 30 panel annunciators.
