News From EBASE: CMC Electronics

Launches New Electronic Flight Bag 

CMC Electronics Inc. has launched a new, second-generation Class 2 Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) designed specifically for airlines and the discerning business jet owner.  This new EFB, designated the CMA-1100, bridges the gap between low-end off-the-shelf PC tablets and high-end Class 3 EFBs, by offering an avionics-grade hardware package and certification to DO-160D.

Designed for use in all phases of flight, the CMA-1100 consists of a lightweight, compact and self-contained electronic display and processing unit, and a companion power and expansion module unit. In addition to software definable "FMS-style" line-select keys that surround the high-quality display, the CMA-1100 offers a "film-on-glass" touch-sensitive screen providing pilots with a choice when accessing or navigating through EFB software applications such as electronic charts, checklists, e-documents, performance calculations, real-time weather, surveillance video and moving maps. 

Bruce Bailey, vice-president, commercial aviation explains: "With features that are usually not found in a Class 2 EFB, the CMC Electronics' CMA-1100 is truly in a class of its own. Our expertise in flight management systems, global positioning systems, enhanced vision systems and aeronautical communications products has helped expand our EFB offering with additional applications."

CMC Electronics launched its electronic flight bag line of products last year and retained responsibility for the former Northstar aviation sector products, further to the sale of its subsidiary Northstar Technologies of Acton, MA, to Brunswick Corporation of Lake Forest, IL. The former Northstar aviation sector products, including the CT-1000G Electronic Flight Bag and the M1 and M3 series GPS products, now benefit from CMC Electronics' expertise in avionics manufacturing and maintenance, and its international support capabilities.
