The certification will allow operators to meet worldwide mandates for routing in the North Atlantic, improving communications over oceanic and remote routes.
 
FANS 1/A+ provides new functionalities such as the Automatic Position Reporting (ADS-C) that aims to reduce traffic congestion and pilot and crew workload, and increase accuracy of reporting.
 
“As part of its policy of continually investing in improvements to its Legacy fleet, Dassault is actively committed to delivering enhancements and upgrades like FANS 1/A+ that are optimized for the Future Air Navigation System (NextGen),” said Jacques Chauvet, senior vice president of Worldwide Customer Service.
 
This upgrade is designed for Dassault’s Falcon Elite II/Select II avionic suites for the Falcon 900 non-EASy fleet.
