Boeing Business Jet operators will soon have a new and healthy upgrade in their aircrafts. Rockwell Collins will be developing EVS or the Enhanced Vision Systems for Boeing.
The aircrafts will be fitted with the new upgrade in 2008. EVS will allow the pilots to descend their aircrafts below the minimums using the high quality image that will be provided by the Head-up Guidance System and the Head-Down Displays.
These displays will increase the situational awareness of the pilots in case of bad visibility such as in case of fog.
Rockwell Collins has also teamed up with Max-Viz to complete the certification of EVS on the Boeing. The aircrafts that have to be upgraded to the new system will require an upgrade to the HGS 4000 and also an upgraded infrared camera.
