What is now the Korry UCS technology was originally developed by Esterline in a precursor application as a touchscreen display for the overhead panel of the Gulfstream G500 and G600 long-range business jets. Esterline is a lead contractor to Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation for the G500/G600 flight deck.
“It’s an industry milestone for Esterline to develop touchscreen display technology specifically for overhead panels in civilian aviation,” said Kevin Moschetti, President, Esterline Control & Communication Systems. “After pioneering this application for the business jet market, we are now making the technology available in a format easily adapted to a wider range of aircraft.”
The Korry UCS display technology will be on display at the NBAA 2015 Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition in Las Vegas, 17th-19th November, in booth C12838.
