Demonstrations undertaken in flight of the Smiths Industries Electronic Flight Instrumentation System (EFIS) at RAE Bedford; at Toulouse for Airbus Industries; and for a variety of authorities and companies in North America; are the first to show an integrated colour CRT system in its natural environment. The EFIS has been installed in the RAE One-eleven aircraft and comprises 8in. by 8in. display units to ARINC 725 Form Factor D, for primary flight and navigation data. Although there have been only two displays for the demonstrations, there could be six in a typical production aircraft flight deck. The flexibility of installation and the ability to make software changes enables the system to be adapted to meet the needs of an operator, and in addition, different display unit configurations are also being developed.
