[Avionics Today 07-13-2016] Esterline CMC Electronics has received Standard Type Certificate (STC) approval from the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) for the Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS) upgrade on ATR 42/72 aircraft with its CMA-6800 Display Solution.

The CMA-6800 is an Active Matrix Liquid Crystal Display (AMLCD), form-fit and function interchangeable solution for legacy Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) displays. According to Esterline, there is no change in cockpit operations since the unit is installed seamlessly with existing symbol generators and control panels.
