- a fully integrated digital cockpit utilising multi-function displays ,
- a Flight Management System ,
- an advanced autopilot and be capable of certification to FAR/JAR Part 27 or equivalent military standards. <snip>
- The Crown has a preference for a T/LUH with a retractable wheeled undercarriage
- at Maximum All Up Weight, will be in the 3-tonne class .
That'll be a A109 Power then, surely?
Game over.
