Based on Innovative Solutions & Support's Vantage Cockpit currently installed in Cessna Citations and Dassault Falcons, IS&S has announced that Vantage is now available for the Pilatus PC-12.

Vantage for the PC-12 will feature a 3 display system that will expand functions on board the PC-12 to include:

• Integrated Flight Management Systems with panel or keyboard access.
• Full support for Airways
• Jeppesen e-charts, full class e-charts with aircraft position on moving map, approach plates, SIDS and STARS.

The IS&S Vantage is a fully integrated cockpit allowing operators to upgrade their aircraft to a glass cockpit while leaving existing third party avionics or selecting best of breed new equipment installed in the aircraft, thus minimizing the cost and down time of the upgrade. The Vantage system provides users with enhanced situational awareness, increased functionality, and reduced crew workload and weight savings.

The Vantage system enables IS&S to offer a complete cockpit solution, including communications and navigation, to OEMs and reuse of existing systems in retrofit applications.

The Vantage system is available in two, three or four 10.4-inch Display Unit architectures that provide crisp graphics and sunlight readability. Options include: e-charts (Jeppesen), electronic checklists, enhanced vision systems, flight management system, on-board cabin video, WAAS LPV, Synthetic Vision and XM Satellite Weather.
