Avionics On Display At The China Helicopter Exposition
Following integration into 20 aircraft ranging from business jets to military flight decks, Rockwell Collins will unveil Pro Line Fusion for commercial helicopters at the China Helicopter Exposition taking place Sept. 9-13. The company said in a news release that a brand new Pro Line Fusion demonstrator will debut in the Rockwell Collins exhibit where visitors can “fly” the rotary wing avionics solution.
Featuring advanced graphical interfaces, intuitive icons and easily configurable multi-function display windows, Pro Line Fusion makes it easy for pilots to keep their eyes forward, with the right information in the right place. Now, pilots can more naturally and effectively stay focused on the mission during all phases of flight and in all flying conditions.
With an intuitive layout that can be preconfigured to match specific operational scenarios, the system offers a variety of innovative technologies designed to reduce pilot workload and enhance situational awareness.
The mission-specific operational profiles include offshore platform approaches, hover in place, extended search and rescue patterns, and other critical mission capabilities.
Combining large, high-resolution displays with the ease of touch-screen operations (complemented by intuitive keypad and cursor controls), Pro Line Fusion can meet the demands of any helicopter mission today and for the future.
In addition to Pro Line Fusion, Rockwell Collins will also showcase the following technologies for commercial helicopters:
HeliSure flight situational awareness solutions, which delivers sensor data in real time through an intuitive user interface that features 3D visualization for information that pilots can easily, quickly and effectively process. The first two products of the HeliSure family are Helicopter Synthetic Vision System (H-SVS) and Helicopter Terrain Awareness and Warning System (H-TAWS), which have been selected by AgustaWestland for the AW149, AW189, AW101 and AW169 platforms.
ACCEL Flight Simulation Co. LTD: The Rockwell Collins joint venture with Bluesky Aviation, ACCEL Flight Simulation, Co. offers full flight simulators, visual systems and other training solutions for realistic pilot training at low lifecycle costs with local service and support from our facility and team in Tianjin.
