Dassault Aviation receives STC for Falcon 900 InSight Display System

Universal Avionics has announced that Dassault Aviation has received FAA Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for Universal Avionics’ InSight™ Flight Deck upgrade on Dassault Falcon 900B.

The STC for the Falcon type allows aircraft owners to upgrade to a 4-display InSight System while maintaining existing factory-delivered and OEM-supported flight management systems.

According to Universal Avionics, the solution provides a new level of situational awareness to the flight crew, with features such as a 3D Synthetic Vision System and 2D interactive digital maps, and improves flight operations by introducing high brightness and large format displays with intuitive interfaces.

The installation also increases available payload by over 200 lbs (91 kg). Universal Avionics says the solution is fully compatible with the FANS 1/A+, CPDLC, and ATN B1 solutions that are already provided by Dassault Aviation and Dassault Falcon Jet.

“The InSight Display System continues to gain significant momentum in the market, with nine STCs available or in advanced development, demonstrating the scalability of the system for business aviation,” said Dror Yahav, Universal Avionics’ Chief Executive Officer. “Upcoming upgrades for Enhanced Flight Vision Systems and Flight Deck Connectivity will bring the updated airplane into the front line of business jets.”
