Aero-TV: VoiceFlight Systems -- Flight By Voice Command

It's Time To TELL Your Avionics Who Is Boss...

'Fess Up... you talk to your instrument panel... you know you do and its time to simply confess and get over it. Because... now it may actually do you some good. VoiceFlight Systems has received an amended STC that expands the applicability of its "revolutionary" VFS101 pilot speech recognition system to include the popular WAAS enabled GNS430W and GNS530W navigation units.

 

The enhanced VFS101 retains the exceptional speed and accuracy of the original unit, but now allows pilots to directly enter and edit the active flight plan on GNS430W/530W GPS units. New to the VFS101 is a novel Airway Compression feature that allows long flight plans to be entered within the 31 waypoint limitation of the GPS units. Pilots can now enter Boston to Florida (e.g. BOS V3 PBI) in seconds with a simple speech command.

The VFS101 was the first speech recognition system certified by the FAA. It permits pilots to enter complex flight plan up to ten times faster than is possible with conventional GPS entry knobs. It also supports Direct-To operations and automatic expansion of Victor Airways.

VoiceFlight Systems has received Parts Manufacturer Approval from the FAA and the first production run of VFS101 units was put into circulation at Oshkosh 2011.
