Chapter 1
Welcome & 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. The EFD system is
designed to replace traditional, mechanical primary ight instruments—
in whole or in part, all at once, or in phases. This modularity and
upgradability allow the system to grow with you and your airplane, over
time and aordably.
The EFD system is built around the EFD1000/500 Display Unit, which
replaces a vertical pair of your six primary ight instruments. The
EFD1000/500 has a bright, high-resolution, six-inch diagonal LCD display,
and a number of knobs and buttons 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) and it can also be recess mounted (Figure 1-1).
