Companies have tried for decades to create a viable head up display for the lighter end of general aviation. But until now, nobody has successfully produced a unit that fits the needs of piston and light turbine operators. MyGoFlight first announced its HUD four years ago, and is currently flight-testing the unit in an Avidyne-equipped Cirrus.
MyGoFlight HUD Nears Certification
Key Takeaways:
- MyGoFlight is introducing the Skydisplay HUD-LCD180, a new head-up display designed to bring advanced "eyes-out" flight information to general and light business aviation.
- This HUD integrates certified flight data from existing avionics, offering robust capabilities similar to commercial systems but at a significantly lower price point (around $25,000) than traditional certified HUDs.
- Expected to receive Supplemental Type Certification (STC) later this year, the system aims to improve flight safety by keeping pilots focused outside the cockpit during critical flight phases.
