CMC Electronics (E211) has completed the avionics systems integration work on the Dubai Air Wing’s Lockheed Martin L100-30 cockpit upgrade.
Teamed with Gulf Aircraft Maintenance (Gamco), CMC was the prime contractor for the project and supplied its CMA-900 Flight Management System (FMS) as the core of the upgrade.
The CMA-900 features a colour, liquid-crystal multifunction display and includes CMC’s GPS sensor.
Multisensor
The Dubai Air Wing configuration is a multisensor system based on a dual CMA-900 FMS. The upgrade will allow the aircraft to meet all P-RNAV (precision area navigation), flight data recording and terrain avoidance warning system (TAWS) requirements.
Dubai Air Wing commander Col Rashid K Balhaul says: “We are looking forward to realising the many economic, operational and, in particular, safety related benefits provided by the upgrade of our L100-30 aircraft.”
