Lufthansa Selects Thales/Smiths Aerospace FMS for New A340-600s Lufthansa will install the Thales/Smiths Aerospace FMS (flight management system) on 39 of its single-aisle and long-range Airbus aircraft currently in service, plus all 42 of the new A320s, A330s and A340-600s it has recently ordered. This decision follows the German carrier's determination last year to equip its new A340-600 fleet with the TopFlight system. The Airbus FMS has dual high-speed processors, a large memory capacity, a LCD (liquid crystal display), and what Thales describes as unique software functionalities - with superior flight planning flexibility (multi revision temporary flight plan, undo function, improved DIR TO...), and upgraded display functionality: "what you see is what you fly". Smiths Aerospace was officially acquired by GE Aviation in May of this year. 06-25-2007. |
