Maule Air Offering Forward.Vision EVS
Maule Air is offering Forward.Vision EVS (enhanced vision system) as a new option on its full line of
aircraft and as a retrofit on existing models.
The
EVS-100 option uses a FLIR (forward looking infrared) camera and a head-down
TFT (thin film transistor) LCD (liquid crystal display) to provide the pilot
with real-time imaging in smoke, dust, haze, and of course at night. Since it
clearly shows clouds, terrain and fixed obstacles, it can help a pilot from
inadvertently entering instrument conditions, or colliding with ground
obstructions, while flying at night. It can make ground operations safer in
those conditions also by clearly depicting ground personnel, vehicles and
animals, as well as taxiways and runways. 04-06-2008. |
