GAViS
The increased visibility from GAViS provides pilots better reference points, which improves pilots’ situational awareness and allows them to respond more effectively to changing flight conditions.
Gulfstream PlaneDeck
An Avionics Upgrade With The Future In Mind
The Gulfstream GIV and Gulfstream GV cockpits leap forward in avionics capability with a PlaneDeck retrofit, which replaces the original Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) primary flight displays with sharper, more vivid Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
A sharper image isn’t the only advantage. LCD generates much less heat than a CRT because LCD pulls less electrical current. With less heat and current comes increased reliability. The lower current load from the LCD also frees up current capacity, which can then be used to support other cockpit equipment or cabin amenities.
PlaneDeck also offers enhanced flight-control monitoring that provides more data to pilots, improving their situational awareness and increasing passenger safety.
The avionics advancement isn’t limited only to display. A side-mounted Cursor Control Device (CCD) allows a pilot to zoom in, select and click, and view data for flight system displays, checklists and approach charts.
Maintenance costs also are reduced because an LCD is structured as part of an easily replaced modular unit. The PlaneDeck architecture also provides a software advantage. The newer display technology provides a platform that can easily be updated as new flight-deck improvements are developed.
Experience Product Enhancements
Connectivity Service
To truly deliver an elevated experience in aircraft today, the cabin must include the fastest and most reliable connectivity solutions. Gulfstream offers a range of satellite-based and ground-based networks to help travelers stay in touch around the world and pairs those systems with advanced hardware, such as a router with built-in smart technology, that ensures passengers get the most from the voice, text, data and video services.
Synthetic Vision
The world is not flat. So why should a pilot’s cockpit display only be two-dimensional? Seeing accurate terrain representation rather than a simple color-coded representation is a unique safety feature of the Gulfstream Synthetic Vision-Primary Flight Display (SV-PFD).
Gulfstream PlaneBook
Trade bulky flight manuals for one slim, portable, easily updated, interactive tablet―that’s the advantage of PlaneBook, a software program created by Gulfstream pilots and technical writers.
