Addressing Safety and Maintenance Concerns by Combining Flight Recording and Usage Monitoring into a Single Device
Aircraft operators are constantly looking for ways to reduce the size and weight of onboard avionics units. For many operators, a flight recorder (FR) is essential to meet regulatory requirements.
The Problem of Obsolete Avionics
One issue that fleet owners face for their older aircraft is the obsolescence of avionics systems. This paper presents different strategies for addressing this growing problem, including replacing obsolete line replaceable units (LRUs) using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products.
Mitigating Flight Data Recorder Modification Issues using Modular FDAUs
This white paper discusses different strategies for gathering data for flight data recorders and the implications these have on deployment time, system flexibility, and suitability for deployment across a fleet of diverse aircraft.
Small Form Factor (SFF) Mission System Modularity Enables Choice of Distributed or Consolidated Architectures
This white paper explores how some of the use-case considerations and technological advances are driving system integrators to pursue a distributed over a consolidated system architecture and visa-versa.
