Certification (STC) as a Class 2 Electronic Flight Bag system on
the MD-10/MD-11 series aircraft. Executed by Avionics Support
Group, this marks yet another STC achieved for the navAero tBag C2
Class 2 EFB hardware.
The STC was issued on October 3. The company tells ANN its
customer is a major international airline planning a fleet-wide

aircraft (a UPS MD11 is shown below).
As a Class II device, navAero says the tBagC2 system is suitable
for use during all phases of flight.
"This achievement marks yet another validation of our system as
a rugged Class 2 EFB hardware solution that meets the demanding

Class II EFB computer and display technology gives aircraft
operators a high quality, robust and cost effective Class II

are truly becoming the preferred choice of EFB solutions for
commercial aircrafts."
