Norwegian Carrier Selects navAero EFB

navAero said its t-BagC22 Class 2 electronic flight bag (EFB) system has been selected by Norwegian Air Shuttle for fleet-wide deployment on the airline’s B737 NGs.

The Norwegian Air Shuttle program includes cross-connected dual t-Bag C22 EFBs with the navAero t-Pad 2000 display. The systems feature the newly commercialized navAero-designed, UMTS/HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) 3G cellular modem for on-ground data transfer, ARINC 429 connectivity and custom software enabling moving map applications on a Class 2 EFB.

The contract covers fleetwide deployment on Norwegian Air Shuttle’s 40 currently operating 737s, with an option for 42 737NGs on order. The deployment has begun and will be completed this year, navAero said.
