Welcome and Introduction
Welcome to Aspen Avionics’ Evolution Flight Display (EFD) System, the
most flexible, expandable, and upgradable Electronic Flight Instrument
System (EFIS) available for general aviation aircraft. Designed to replace
traditional mechanical primary flight instruments—in whole or in part,
all at once, or in phases. This modularity and upgradability allows the
system to grow with you and your airplane, over time and affordably.
The EFD system is built around the EFD1000 PFD, which replaces a vertical pair of your
six primary flight instruments. The PFD has a bright, high-resolution, six-inch diagonal
LCD display, and a number of
knobs, buttons, and keys the pilot uses to control the
system. The three-inch diameter, four-inch deep can on the back of the display slides
into existing panel cutouts (where the top mechanical instrument used to be).
