Classic Aero-TV: A Look At Avidyne GLAS - New Life for Old Jet Panels

From 2018: Avidyne Introduces 'GLAS' At NBAA

The big news from Avidyne at NBAA 2018 was "GLAS" ... the GPS Legacy Aviation System. The GLAS protocol, provides direct interface to legacy avionics systems in these CitationJet aircraft without the exorbitant costs of external adapter boxes or EFIS factory upgrades, according to the company.

The company is actively involved in multiple FMS upgrade programs to the venerable Cessna Citation series of aircraft, using their IFD550/545 FMS navigators to provide LPV approach capability, electronic approach charts, wireless connectivity, and ADS-B compliance.

Citation CJ1+,  CJ2+, and CJ3 owners who upgrade to the Avidyne IFD Series FMS systems will add easy-to-use, hybrid-touch FMS capability, autopilot-coupled LPV approach capability, 3D synthetic vision views of nearby terrain, obstacles, and traffic, plus integrated wireless connectivity to the IFD100 and many third-party apps including ForeFlight®, plus an option for  dual Avidyne SkyTrax 322 remote-mount or SkyTrax 340 panel-mounted Mode S transponders for ADS-B OUT compliance. 

In July 2018, Avidyne received FAA Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) approval of dual hybrid-touchscreen IFD550/540 Series FMS/GPS/NAV/COM systems, for installation in Cessna CitationJet 525 and 525A models with Collins Pro Line 21 and the FGC-3000 Digital Flight Control System.
