Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion™ reaches major milestone with final TSO approval
Friday, 22 April 2011

Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion™, the company’s newest integrated avionics system, reached a major milestone today by receiving its final Technical Standard Order (TSO).  The TSO, issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), certifies the hardware and software for Pro Line Fusion and sets the stage for Supplemental Type Certification (STC) on Rockwell Collins’ Challenger 601 test aircraft and certification on Bombardier’s Global Express XRS aircraft. Pro Line Fusion is Rockwell Collins’ most advanced avionics offering that is bringing brand new features not currently available in the marketplace, including synthetic vision on a head-up display (HUD), networked capability enabling interoperability between onboard and ground systems, and the largest high resolution displays available. “Now that all the 50 hardware and software TSOs for Pro Line Fusion are approved, we’re focusing on the next major milestone -- the STC of the full system on our test aircraft,” said Greg Irmen, vice president and general manager, Business and Regional Systems for Rockwell Collins. “We’re moving full speed ahead to achieve this certification in the coming days.” The Pro Line Fusion system is in development for the following announced aircraft: • Bombardier Global Express XRS/Bombardier Global 5000 • Bombardier Learjet 85 • Bombardier CSeries • Embraer Legacy 450/500 • Gulfstream G250 • Mitsubishi Regional Jet
