Superior situational awareness, reduced workload, greater command and control Cobham delivers the new standard in helicopter avionics. In one intuitive display, the Cobham EFIS integrates these breakthroughs: • 3D Synthetic Vision • Highway-In-The-Sky (HITS) navigation • Helicopter TAWS (HTAWS) • Hover Vector • Graphical Flight Management System (FMS) • Head-Up Display (HUD) symbology • Unusual Attitude Recovery (UAR) • And much more Not only is Cobham the safest, most advanced system available. It is also the number-one selling helicopter EFIS worldwide. Conformal 3D Synthetic Vision The Cobham EFIS is the only FAA-certified avionics system to show you three-dimensional terrain, obstacles, and traffic in real time on the Primary Flight Display (PFD). It delivers a real-time visual flow so realistic, so true-to-life, it has been called Virtual VFR. The Cobham 3D Synthetic Vision EFIS takes safety to an entirely new level. The inset photo above shows the Primary Flight Display while flying into the valley 3 The green boxes that create the Highway-In-The-Sky route on the PFD lead the pilot safely to his destination. 1 pictured. Note how accurately the display conforms to the actual terrain in the photo. That’s conformal 3D Synthetic Vision. Now imagine the situation—not as sunny VFR—but as a nighttime evacuation under deteriorating weather conditions. Highway-In-The-Sky (HITS) Highway-In-The-Sky (HITS) allows pilots to fly with ILS precision to any point in the world. The HITS route appears on the PFD as a series of green boxes superimposed over the flowing terrain of the 3D Synthetic Vision. The pilot flies through the boxes to follow the HITS route. The applications are endless. For example, HITS makes it easy to fly a precise search and rescue grid—accurate to less than a meter.
