L-3 Avionics Offering New Verbal Alerts for Its SkyWatch Collision Avoidance System

L-3 Avionics Systems has an enhancement for its SkyWatch general aviation collision avoidance system that will include verbal alerts.

L-3's new SkyWatch 497 with VIP (verbal intruder positioning) capability gives the pilot warnings such as, "traffic, traffic - 12 o'clock high - 3 miles," in addition to a normal visual display of range, bearing and relative altitude when a TA (traffic advisory) is issued.  In addition, the system will display up to 10 targets simultaneously, depending on the aircraft's display capability.

The company is offering a nominal-fee upgrade option to all existing SkyWatch 497 owners and a five-year warranty for new customers.
