Honeywell Launches ADS-B Enabled Traffic Computer For Improved Airborne Safety And Efficiency With Turkish Airlines

Turkish Airlines Selects Honeywell’s Suite of Avionics Which Includes SmartTraffic, SmartRunwayand IntuVue® 3-D Weather Radar systems for improved safety, situational awareness and fuel efficiency

SINGAPORE, Feb. 3, 2010 -- Honeywell (NYSE: HON) announced today that Turkish Airlines is the first customer to select Honeywell’s SmartTraffic™ system which enables the newly developed Airbus Airborne Traffic Situational Awareness (ATSAW) system. Utilizing ADS-B technology to increase safety by providing pilots with more information on surrounding air traffic, the new software also allows pilots to better plan for oceanic flight level changes to reduce fuel burn – resulting in significant cost savings.

“ATSAW and Honeywell’s SmartTraffic technology increases safety and situational awareness by displaying more surrounding aircraft and more information than Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems (TCAS)-only systems,” said John Bolton, Honeywell President of Air Transport and Regional business. “ATSAW enables flight path changes to smoother air for fuel savings and offers enhanced visual separation on approach so that higher volumes of aircraft can land safely.”

The reduced fuel burn through transoceanic flight routing using ATSAW and Honeywell’s SmartTraffic technology is estimated to save more than $100,000 per aircraft per year.

Turkish Airlines selected ATSAW and Honeywell’s SmartTraffic technology on 10 new A330s delivered in 2010 through 2012.

Turkish also selected Honeywell avionics for its A330s including SmartRunway, a technology designed to break the chain of events leading to runway incidents; IntuVue Advanced 3-D Weather Radar; Satellite Communication Systems; Air Data Inertial Reference System; Flight Management System; ; Quantum Line Radios (VHF, VOR, DME, ADF, ); Multi-Mode Receiver; Radio Altimeter; TCAS/Traffic Computer; Mode S Transponder; HF radio and Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System.

For 12 new Boeing 777 to be delivered between 2010 and 2011, Turkish selected the full suite of Honeywell avionics products including IntuVue Advanced 3-D Weather Radar; SmartRunway; Satellite Communication Systems; Solid State Cockpit Voice and Flight Data Recorders; Multi Mode Receiver; Quantum Line Radios (VHF, VOR, DME, ADF); Radio Altimeter; TCAS/Traffic Computer and Mode S Transponders.
