Welcome and Introduction
Welcome to Aspen Avionics’ Evolution Flight Display (EFD) System, the
most exible, expandable, and upgradable Electronic Flight Instrument
System (EFIS) available for general aviation aircraft. Designed to replace
traditional mechanical primary ight 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 aordably.
The EFD system is built around the EFD1000 PFD, which replaces a vertical pair of your
six primary ight 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) (Figure
1-1).
