New Functionality to Include FANS, RNP and IPFD

NBAA, Orlando, October 4, 2008 -- Honeywell (NYSE: HON) announced today that it is working with Dassault to develop and certify on Dassault’s EASy equipped cockpits a package of new functionality enhancements (dubbed Phase 2) including an Integrated Primary Flight Display (IPFD) with synthetic vision.

In addition to the IPFD with synthetic vision, the new Dassault EASy Phase 2 flight deck configuration will include Localizer Performance with Vertical approaches (LPV), Required Navigation Performance (RNP) 0.1, FANS1A Controller Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC), Runway Awareness and Advisory System (RAAS), VHF Datalink Mode 2, XM Graphical Weather, Take Off, Go Around Improvements, and Paperless Charts.

“The Dassault EASy flight deck, based on our Primus Epic integrated avionics system, delivers more functionally today than any competitor will have in the next few years,” said Rob Wilson, President, Honeywell Business Aviation. “Primus Epic, the definition of integrated avionics today, provides an unsurpassed capability in integrating new features via software updates, giving EASy operators the capacity to continually modernize their flight deck without having to go through a complete cockpit overhaul.”

The EASy Phase 2 features and system improvements will be released on all three Falcon platforms, the F900 Series (4Q 2009 for all functions except FANS1A, which will be introduced in 2010); F7X (Mid-2010); and, F2000 Series (Mid-2010).

“With RNP and FANS capability, FalconJet operators will have a suite of products that will not only help them fly the most efficient route to their destination, but when coupled with Honeywell’s RAAS and Synthetic Vision for enhanced situational awareness, give them a safety cushion when departing and arriving at airports around the world,” said Victor Valente, Vice President, Dassault Programs.

The Dassault IPFD is designed to seamlessly integrate into the EASy cockpit featuring Primus Epic architecture. The Dassault IPFD is the second application of the IPFD family and builds on Honeywell commitment to bring new and innovative functionality to the world most advanced flight decks by introducing new industry-leading features.

“The Dassault IPFD will include features like patented range rings, allowing the pilot to gauge distance from obstacles and terrain, high resolution runway detail, bringing added detail and information to runway operations and an innovative rendering of the terrain at the horizon, enhancing pilot situational awareness.” Valente said.

Honeywell’s IPFD™ improves the Primary Flight Display (PFD) by fusing terrain data and advanced symbology, including features like Flight Path Marker which are typically found on a HUD, giving the flight crew improved situational awareness. The terrain is generated from Honeywell’s Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS) terrain database using high-performance graphics generation system. Honeywell’s EGPWS database has an unprecedented record of proven operation in nearly 800 million hours on commercial air transport, business jets and helicopters.

Honeywell developed the IPFD™ by performing extensive human centered design studies, capturing the “Voice of the Customer.” Rapid prototyping in the Honeywell lab simulators and extensive flight testing with hundreds of pilots helped Honeywell develop the most advanced synthetic vision product in the market today.
