NAVIGATION DISPLAY In most of modern aircraft, the couple PFD and ND is present. The Navigation display screen displays the lateral navigation status of the aircraft. The latest navigation displays are also able to display the vertical flight profile. NDs are the evolutions of the EHSI (Electronic Horizontal Situation Indicator) and implemented for the first time in the 90's on A320 and B737 aircraft. The main characteristic of the Navigation Display is the colour screen and the ability to display different modes and functions : route flown, VOR, AFD, ILS, Weather Radar, TCAS, etc. Here's the ND (Navigation Display) of an A350 during a visual approach with a 40-knot crosswind in the simulator. We're practicing visual approaches in crosswinds at London Heathrow, landing on runway 27, aligned with 270° magnetic. The crosswind is from 180° at 42 knots, giving us a ground speed of 133 knots and true airspeed of 140 knots. The 40-knot crosswind causes an 18° drift angle between the aircraft's heading and track. The ND shows a small yellow aircraft relative to the green track and two white lines for the runway. #aircraft #aircraftcontrolsystem #aircraftnavigation #cockpit #avionicssystem #navigationdisplay #airbus #airbuslovers #A350 #SasidharanMurugan #Itzmemsd

Changing the pilot experience The fly-by-wire systems used by Dassault Aviation, Gulfstream Aerospace & Bombardier operate with a flight control computer (FCC) linked to a multi-servo digital #autopilot. Unlike mechanical systems of older aircraft, where a pilot controls every aspect of flight, it’s the computer that takes over once the pilot inputs commands. BAE Systems has designed controls that are customised & intuitive, by relaying pilot input every few milliseconds but are 40% more compact than five years ago. With Textron Aviation it was no surprise that they would sequence through one of its most successful models for next-gen treatment, the Citation CJ3 Gen2 update. Inside, the revised CJ3 looks & feels like a bigger jet than its predecessor, the updated Garmin G3000, coupled with the new GDL 60 #datalink, transforms the pilot’s suite into a connected cockpit. For Dassault the fly-by-wire controls & an advanced situational-awareness system called Falcon Eye are the #cockpit differentiators. Plus, the 6X has paved the way for an even larger wide-body, the ultra-long-range 10X. The Cirrus #flightdeck holds the big reveal, which is the company’s strategy to fully align its piston series (from the SR20 on up) to its SF50 #VisionJet by offering a remarkably similar #piloting experience, with an intuitive interface. The new #avionics are the brains behind a host of #piston-specific tools that #pilots will use to ease workload, navigate on the ground & in the #air, while enhancing comfort along with safety. With context-driven taxi displays, automatic tank switching, & flap-overspeed protection, the Cirrus SR G7 operates more like a #jet. On the other hand with Embraer up front, the optional #Runway Overrun Awareness & Alerting System that enhances stabilised approaches adds an extra layer of protection during a critical phase of #flight. Further, the Flight Stream 510 allows the #pilot to connect portable electronic devices to the #aircraft avionics, thus reducing workload. Not exactly a magic carpet, the general #aviation scene has never been better. #businessjet’s are awesome! #bizjet #bizav https://lnkd.in/dZ7_WVEj

Hello Aviators, #35of100 ECAM - Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitor It is the aircraft's "smart dashboard." It's mainly used in Airbus planes to keep pilots informed about what's going on with the aircraft in real-time. Here's how it works: 1. Upper Screen (Engine/Warning Display): This is like the main alert system. It shows vital engine stats and flashes warnings if something isn't right. It's the first place pilots look if there's an issue. 2. Lower Screen (System Display): This is more like a detailed status report. It gives a closer look at specific systems like fuel, hydraulics, and electrics. If the upper screen flags a problem, pilots can use this lower screen to dive deeper into what's happening. ECAM is that it doesn't just show problems—it also helps fix them. It provides step-by-step instructions and checklists, guiding the pilots on what to do next. This makes managing any in-flight issues smoother and safer. #Aviation #Aerospace #Airbus #FlightSafety #AviationTechnology #PilotTraining #AircraftSystems #AviationInnovation #ECAM #ElectronicCentralizedAircraftMonitor #AviationSafety #FlightDeck #AviationEngineering #AirlineOperations #AviationIndustry #AviationExperts #FlightTechnology #AviationMaintenance

The magnetic compass in airplane cockpits, often underappreciated and misunderstood, remains one of the most reliable navigational tools due to its independence from external power sources. Despite modern avionics like AHRS and GPS, which rely on electricity and signals that can fail, the magnetic compass continues to function as long as the Earth's magnetic field exists. It does have errors, but these are consistent and manageable with proper understanding, ensuring it can guide pilots effectively when other systems fail. Various compass types, such as the traditional liquid-filled compass and the more advanced vertical-card compass, have their respective advantages and challenges. The liquid-filled compass can suffer from fluid loss and require periodic maintenance to ensure accuracy, while the vertical-card compass offers better stability and reduced error through eddy current damping. Accurate readings from any compass necessitate understanding its inherent errors, applying necessary corrections, and maintaining proper calibration. Despite advancements in technology, the magnetic compass remains a crucial, dependable backup in the cockpit, proving its enduring value in aviation.

Part 3. Lockheed Martin once was a prominent name in commercial aviation as well. The Constellation was very popular, but their most ambitious and also unfortunately the albatross around their neck, was the L-1011 Tristar. The below article (link in comments) explains this aircraft's journey beautifully and it ended production in 1983. This airplane gave the aviation world a true autopilot system capable of doing automated takeoff and landings, way back in the 1980s. Folks who have been lucky to work on this airplane, always speak about it in awe and with loads of fondness. it truly seems like an airplane ahead of it's time. Fun fact: Today the marketing name of the Boeing B787 is Dreamliner. The fun name of the Airbus A350 is Eyeliner. But the OG, the Tristar was nicknamed "Whisperliner" by its first airline operator, Eastern Airlines, due to it's extremely quiet cabin, a result of optimised positioning of the engines. Lockheed Martin, Top Gun..what's the connection with new advancements coming to commercial aviation, you ask? Coming up soon 🙂 #aviation

Understanding Air Brakes in Aircraft: Purpose & Technicalities In aviation, every component plays a critical role in ensuring safety and efficiency. One such key feature is the air brake system. But what exactly are air brakes, and why are they essential for aircraft operations? Purpose: Air brakes, also known as speed brakes, are control surfaces that increase drag to help an aircraft decelerate, especially during descent and landing. This is crucial for reducing speed without overburdening the traditional wheel brakes, ensuring a smooth and controlled approach. They are also helpful in adjusting altitude quickly while maintaining passenger comfort. Technical Aspects: Air brakes are typically deployed by extending panels into the airflow, disrupting the smooth aerodynamic flow over the wings or fuselage. These panels are controlled hydraulically or electrically. The braking efficiency depends on factors such as aircraft speed, altitude, and the angle of deployment. Modern aircraft are equipped with fly-by-wire systems, which allow precise control over air brake operation. By managing speed effectively, air brakes ensure pilots can make precise adjustments during critical phases of flight. The next time you're on a flight, keep in mind that these systems are quietly working to ensure a safe landing! #Aviation #AerospaceEngineering #AircraftSafety #AirBrakes #FlightOperations #aviation #aerospace #aircraft #aeroplane #drones
