Key Takeaways:
- Nextant Aerospace has received FAA approval for a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for an upgraded software package for Challenger 604s equipped with Pro Line Fusion avionics.
- The upgrade resolves a previous issue by restoring critical flight management system (FMS) generated features like predicted performance, calculated thrust, and V-speeds, which were present in older Pro Line IV systems but missing from the original Fusion software.
- This enhanced software also introduces new capabilities such as FMS vertical situation display, European ATN B1 Controller Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC), and RNP AR .3 approach functionality, available at no additional charge for current operators.
