 (STC) for the 10"Cockpit/IP(TM) Flat Panel Display A thin display screen for computer and TV usage. The first flat panels appeared on laptop computers in the mid-1980s, and the LCD technology became the standard. Stand-alone LCD screens became available for desktop computers in the mid-1990s and exceeded sales of CRTs for the first time  System in the Pilatus PC-12.

The Cockpit/IP Flat Panel Display System from IS&S significantly improves flight safety and security, streamlines vital in-flight information, and offers PC-12 pilots, passengers, and owners 'Part 25' performance capabilities at less than 'Part 23' costs. Installation of the 10" state-of-the-art displays is available through IS&S partners, Western Aircraft and Epps Aviation, who specialize in Pilatus aircraft avionics modifications and maintenance.

"Along with offering the highest level of certified performance, improved situational awareness, and flight data presentation, IS&S and its installation partners have designed an approach to flat panel upgrades that significantly minimizes the cost and downtime typically required for retrofits, allowing owners to return their aircraft to revenue-generating service in under four days," says Roman Ptakowski, President of IS&S. "On the safety front, we also offer optional installation of electronic flight bag Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) is an electronic information management device that helps flight crews perform flight management tasks more easily and efficiently with less paper.  features such as runway, approach, and in route charts providing pilots real-time, GPS-referenced location data both on the ground and in the air. This is a critical navigational feature highlighted in the aftermath of recent tragedies."

The Cockpit/IP Flat Panel Display System presents other situational data such as TCAS, TAWS, and RVSM, as well as critical Primary Flight information Coattitude direction indication (ADI), horizontal situation indication (HSI), altimeter, airspeed, vertical speed, and radio magnetic indication. IS&S flat panel displays also accept and present typical navigation sources, including DME, ADF (1) (Application Development Facility) An IBM programmer-oriented mainframe application generator that runs under IMS.

In addition, IS&S's proprietary glass cockpit operating system is powered by redundant dual-processors that continuously ensure system reliability and the integrity of data presented to the pilot. The IS&S patented Integrity Checking Processor makes certain all critical functions are validated to standards required for Part 25 aircraft further increasing the PC-12's security and safety.

An additional capability attracting great customer interest is a 'Zoom' feature that magnifies pilot-selected settings, making them larger and easier to read. It is the same "Zoom" feature utilized in improving readability on the Class III EFB.
