Rockwell Collins avionics, SATCOM selected for EVA Air's new Boeing 777 fleet
Taiwan-based EVA Air has selected the full suite of Rockwell Collins avionics, including its industry-leading MultiScanâ„¢ Threat Detection System and GLU-925 Multi-Mode Receiver (MMR), and SATCOM for seven new Boeing 777 aircraft with an option for an additional four.
Rockwell Collins' MultiScan Threat Detection System is a fully automatic airborne weather radar system that combines the latest weather science with advanced engineering concepts to identify and analyze thunderstorm cells, and display the weather threat. The end result is fewer flight diversions, which leads to lower fuel burn, and greater passenger comfort due to minimizing unexpected turbulent encounters.
The latest version of MultiScan features many new capabilities that enable the prediction and display of hail and lightning potential, thunderstorm-related bow-wave turbulence, and storm cell tracking.
