Very sharp! Looks like a step up from what we have today.

kinda partial to IS&S myself mainly because its my first exposure to flat panel. But the Rockwell is a cleaner install and they get rid of the center CRT screens.

Wonder why AMES hasn't advertised for the IS&S install. They own the STC don't they? Looks like it would come in cheaper too.


IS&S 767/757 panel install.

What is IS&S? Looks like a cool mod as well.

Google is your friend.

They installed the "glass" in FDX 757s.

Rockwell Collins new integrated SVS in the HUD is one of the cooler and more functional safety improvements that I've seen (used) in the past decade or longer. EVS would be another improvement that is a big situational awareness jump.

It's absolutely incredible for situational awareness with terrain when flying in IMC and at night, particularly when at unfamiliar airports. It also draws extended center lines (pseudo-approachlights) and domes around the airport that get more and more transparent as you approach the field.

Very Nice. I'm sure UPS has looked into installing them and decided it's "cost prohibitive" as usual.

AMES sold back the STC to IS&S years ago and just builds the installation kits for AMR's 757/767 fleet. They still install the system in the 767-300's that CAM has purchased from Qantas.
