Aero-News Quote of the Day
"Based on subsystem, the flight control & management system segment of the avionics market is projected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period. The aircraft flight control systems can be classified into mechanical, hydro-mechanical, fly-by-wire, and fly-by-light. The current generation aircraft utilize the fly-by-wire (FBW) control systems which have helped significantly reduce the weight of aircraft and its maintenance costs. Flight management system (FMS) is one of the most fundamental components of an aircraft because it serves as the primary interface for the pilot and enables flight planning operations."
