The system received Type 2 LOA in compliance with AC20-153A and
RTCA DO-200A navigation data.
“Eclipse Twin-Engine Jet operators are now able to upgrade their
aircraft with an Integrated Flight Management System through
Eclipse Aerospace,” said Roman Ptakowski, President of IS&S.
“The Avio IFMS avionics suite is one of the most advanced cockpits
available on any aircraft. The thirteen microprocessors in the
IS&S displays control all major aircraft systems. Improvements
to e-Chart, mapping, and satellite weather functionality along with
FMS precision navigation give the Eclipse Twin-Engine Jet unrivaled
performance.”

situational awareness.
The update includes improved Mapping functions such as:
- Overlay of Flight Plan
- Airspaces
- Airways (both High and Low)

provides the pilot with simplified data entry through integrated
bezel pushbuttons and encoders as well as the externally mounted
