Rob Hickman, of Advanced Flight Systems, was proudly showing off the new software for their EFIS systems as well as their new 12″ screen. The 12″ screen has the smallest form factor of any out there, allowing builders to place it in panels that normally wouldn’t have room for such a large screen. Look on AFS’s website for more details on the new software. And in keeping with AFS tradition and builder expectations, the upgrade will be free and user installable.
