UASC taps employee talent for new FMS pilot-interface

摘要

During the development of a new flight management system (FMS) that lives solely as software in a Universal Avionics flight deck avionics system, the company's leaders realized that it also needed an equally innovative way for pilots to interface with the new FMS. "We didn't want to develop a traditional touch CDU [control-display unit] like our competitors," said Dror Yahav, CEO of Universal Avionics Systems Corporation (UASC). "We wanted something different, innovative, that would significantly change the way pilots use FMS."
