Modern Avionics
I am doing a project on modern avionics as part of an MSc and would be very interested on pilots views please. Things like - what equipments are user-friendly and liked, what equipments are disliked or are difficult to get on with, what equipments contribute most to flight safety and if there are any equipment related SOPs that could be implemented or changed.
Example: switching TCAS to TA for runway crossings in poor visibility, so thay any landing aircraft can be seen on screen.
I am particularly interested in emerging equipments such as the electronic flight bag, runway awareness systems, ADS-B, CPDLC, modern weather radars, MLS etc - but any views appreciated, even saying HF radio comms is rubbish is setting a trend!
Thanx
