Gulfstream Scores Double First

Joy Finnegan

Gulfstream Aerospace has become the first Part 25 Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) to have a synthetic vision system certified by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). In the closing days of 2007 and early in 2008 the FAA certified the Gulfstream Synthetic Vision-Primary Flight Display (SV-PFD) system and also certified Gulfstream’s second generation Enhanced Vision System (EVS) II. The certifications are approved for applications on Gulfstream G350, G450, G500 and G550 business jet aircraft. As a result of these certifications, Gulfstream is also the first OEM to provide both enhanced and synthetic vision systems.
