The company has chosen Rockwell Collins’ Airshow 4200D moving map and flight information system for its Boeing 777 and A380 fleet, and the MultiScan hazard detection system and a broad range of avionics for 47 of its Boeing 777 aircraft, with an option on a further 12.
The Airshow 4200D incorporates a new digital video interface, designed specifically to take advantage of the latest generation of in-flight entertainment (IFE) systems, providing an all-digital display. Airshow 4200D also offers the choice to display in a native widescreen format.
The MultiScan weather radar is a fully-automatic, hands-free airborne radar providing clutter-free weather detection from the nose of the aircraft out to 320nm. Emirates also selected the Rockwell Collins GLU-920 multi-mode receiver (MMR), which provides the aircraft’s primary position, velocity and time reference and enables precision landing capability.
Other Rockwell Collins equipment chosen by Emirates includes the ADF-900 automatic direction finder, DME-900 distance measuring equipment, HFS-900D high frequency system, CPL-920D coupling unit and the VOR-900 VHF omnidirectional radio.
