Thomas Global Systems TFD-4100 LCD Display Upgrade Selected for Challenger 604 Fleet Retrofit
IRVINE, California: Thomas Global Systems’ legacy of providing practical flight deck display upgrade solutions for commercial, military and business aircraft continues with the selection of its TFD-4100 drop-in CRT-to-LCD Solution by a prominent operator of Bombardier Challenger 604s for their Pro Line 4 avionics-equipped fleet.
The TFD-4100 solution leverages high-performance AMLCD technology, a proven A-D software core, and seamless integration of LCD components into the Collins Pro Line 4 EFD-4077 CRT display, delivering significant reliability and life cycle cost improvements while avoiding a major flight deck modification and associated aircraft installation, downtime, and crew retraining costs.
A true plug-and-play solution, the TFD-4100 provides a practical and efficient resolution to critical obsolescence of the EFD-4077 CRT display across Bombardier Challenger 604, Dassault Falcon 50EX/2000/2000EX, Gulfstream G100/G200 and Saab 2000 aircraft. Jetstream Aviation Capital, the largest global owner of Saab 2000 aircraft, has already selected the TFD-4100 LCD flight display for its Saab 2000 flight decks.
“The selection of our TFD-4100 solution by a respected operator of Challenger 604s highlights the significant reliability and life cycle cost benefits offered by this latest in drop-in LCD displays, while addressing critical CRT display obsolescence,” said David Barnes, President & COO of Thomas Global Systems. “We are pleased to be rapidly growing the family of aircraft equipped with our proven and practical display solutions.”
The TFD-4100 display for Saab 2000, Bombardier Challenger 604, Dassault Falcon 2000, 2000EX and 50EX and Gulfstream G100/G200 aircraft is the sixth in the Thomas Global product family of drop-in CRT-to-LCD replacement solutions, including the TFD-7076/-77, TFD-8601, and EFI-650 LCD flight displays currently operating on commercial, regional, and business aircraft worldwide.
