Goodrich is showcasing its SmartDisplay Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) among the commercial aircraft components and solutions it is offering to potential customers at Asian Aerospace.
The EFB provides class 2 and 3 EFB functionality, which includes terminal charts, electronic viewer, performance calculation tools, video surveillance, weather applications and an en-route chart, says Goodrich.
Its EFB also allows an affordable upgrade to ADS-B (automatic dependent surveillance broadcast) compliance, which is required by the Next Generation Air Transportation System that will be implemented in the USA's airspace.
