Esterline's Suresight Enhance Vision System Now FAA, EASA
Certified
Esterline CMC Electronics (CMC)'s second-generation SureSight
CMA-2600 I-Series Integrated Sensor System is now approved for use
as an Enhanced Flight Vision System (EFVS) on the Dassault Falcon
7X. This approval was granted recently by the FAA and follows the
certification by the EASA, the lead certification authority,
received in July 2010. With these approvals, F7X operators can now
take advantage of expanded operational credits afforded to aircraft
equipped with an EFVS.
"These certifications confirm the innovative technology and
winning combination of capability, availability and performance of
our SureSight CMA-2600 I-Series Sensor System," said Greg Yeldon,
President, Esterline CMC Electronics. "These approvals are the
culmination of an exhaustive development program lead by Dassault,
teaming CMC's product with Rockwell Collins Head-up Guidance
Systems' Head-up Display technology."
CMC's expanding SureSight family of integrated sensor systems
includes the CMA-2600, CMA-2600i, and the CMA-2700, a higher
resolution, increased capability sensor system that is currently in
development. They are designed to meet demanding video performance,
reliability and quality standards. CMC's EFVS sensors continue to
be the leading choice for airframe manufacturers and prime
contractors. They offer enhanced situational awareness in adverse
operating conditions and enable operators to take advantage of
regulations expanding the operational capabilities of aircraft
equipped with an EFVS.
