Continental Airlines selected a Rockwell Collins suite of avionics systems for 103 Boeing 737 NG and two Boeing 777 aircraft, the companies said Wednesday. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Avionics selected by Continental include GLU-925 Multi-Mode Receiver (MMR), HFS-900D High Frequency (HF) Data Radio, sensors, weather radar and satellite communications. Rockwell Collins said the GLU-925 MMR is the first to include Local Area Augmentation System and GPS landing system (GLS) functionality in addition to Instrument Landing System and Global Navigation Satellite System functionality. Rockwell Collins HFS-900D Data Radio provides a low-cost, long-range data link system for fleets operating in oceanic, polar and remote land areas.
