Display Modernization & Lifecycle Support Solutions
Trusted, cost-effective options to modernize and support legacy avionics.
Thomas Global Systems delivers display modernization solutions that that help operators extend aircraft life, enhance reliability, reduce operating costs, and overcome avionics obsolesence.
Through proprietary LCD replacement technology, advanced engineering and comprehensive lifecycle support, we modernize legacy flight deck displays while maintaining form, fit and function compatibility with existing avionics systems.
From targeted display upgrades to long-term sustainment programs, Thomas Global Systems provides practical, cost-effective pathways to keep aircraft flying for decades beyond original support horizons.
OUR CAPABILITIES
Display Modernization Solutions
Aircraft operators face growing challenges from obsolete display technologies, diminishing supply chains and increasing maintenance costs. Thomas Global’s modernization programs provide:
- New LCD replacements for legacy LCD and CRT displays
- Enhanced display reliability and performance
- Reduced maintenance burden
- Improved parts availability
- Extended aircraft service life
- Lower lifecycle costs
- Long-term supply chain assurance
Unlike full avionics replacement programs, our solutions preserve existing cockpit architecture while introducing modern display technology.
Legacy Display Replacement
Our replacement programs deliver modern LCD assemblies that directly replace obsolete, unreliable or high-cost avionic displays—maintaining full compatibility while improving performance, maintainability and supported by a modern, robust supply chain. Our in-house capabilities include:
- Complete LCD assembly replacement
- HCFL/CCFL backlight replacement
- HCFL/CCFL-to-LED backlight upgrades
These solutions combine new materials and driver sets with the latest technology, ensuring continued operation and supply chain predictability for current avionics systems.
Our objective is to provide comprehensive, long-term support for all avionic LCD and CRT assemblies, backed by Thomas Global’s proven pedigree in design, manufacture, and sustainment of critical avionics.
CRT EFIS & High Voltage Power Supply (HVPS/VHV) Support
Thomas Global is the world leader in MRO support for legacy Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) EFIS and High Voltage Power Supplies (HVPS/VHV). Our capabilities are trusted globally by military and commercial operators across commercial, regional, and business fleets.
As other CRT manufacturers and service providers exit the market, Thomas Global remains committed to long-term, practical CRT support—founded on over seven decades of experience, repair, and OEM-level engineering. Strategic inventories of factory-new OEM CRTs, together with practical LCD conversion technology further ensure sustainable support options through 2030 and beyond.
