BOEING 737 COCKPIT SERIES
All operators who select the PFD/ND format will benefit from easier implementation of equipment for the future air navigation system (FANS).Ĭalled the "virtual flight deck" by its project pilot, the flight deck on the next-generation 737 uses a computer-generated graphics presentation to reproduce either one of two different instrument panels: the panel in the 737-300/-400/-500 series of airplanes or the panel in the 777 and 747-400 airplanes. Operators who fly the latest 737 exclusively will find the more advanced PFD/ND display formats are aligned with those on the advanced 747-400 and 777. As a result, operators can continue to fly their earlier 737s while introducing next-generation 737 airplanes into their fleets with minimal training. Simply by loading flight-deck software, operators can use the CDS to replicate either the electronic flight instrument system with map (EFIS/MAP) display of classic 737 models (737-300/-400/-500) or the primary flight display/ navigational display (PFD/ND) used in the 777 and 747-400 models. Key to the next-generation 737 is the computer-generated graphic representation of flight instruments on the common display system (CDS). The next-generation 737 airplane (737-600/-700/-800/-900) offers more advanced, even more reliable airframe systems and digital avionics for increased altitude, speed, and range capability.
