Innovative Aerosystems Liberty Flight Deck Retrofit for Business Aviation

The Innovative Aerosystems Liberty Flight Deck System delivers a cost-effective retrofit solution that extends the operational life of business jets while enhancing mission capability, aircraft utility, and overall residual value. Inspired by advanced avionics developed for commercial air transport, military, and OEM platforms, the Liberty Flight Deck integrates proven innovations in aircraft systems that improve performance, reduce direct operating costs, and increase pilot comfort and efficiency.

Advanced Flight Deck Technology

The Liberty Flight Deck is customizable to a 2,3 or 4 display configuration in 10”, 12”, or 15.6” display dimensions with high-resolution XGA flat panel displays designed with:

  • Exceptional brightness and readability
  • ±80° cross-cockpit viewing angle
  • NVIS-compliant lighting for night operations
  • Non-glare, anti-reflective surfaces

Fully integrated avionics include:

  • Dual Flight Management Systems (FMS)
  • Electronic charts
  • Utilities Management System (UMS)
  • ThrustSense® Autothrottle
  • Integrated Standby Unit (ISU)
  • Satellite weather
  • Synthetic Vision System (SVS) with integrated TAWS
  • Optional Enhanced Vision (EVS) with Forward Looking Infrared Radar (FLIR)

The Liberty package provides a larger display area and more pixels than many latest-generation aircraft, while meeting all NextGen requirements for ADS-B Out and Required Navigation Performance (RNP) compliance.

Integrated Engine Instrumentation

The IA Engine Instrument Display System (EIDS) consolidates engine parameters directly onto the “big glass” displays. Operators benefit from:

  • Full-color exceedance alerting
  • Clear, intuitive display formats
  • Integrated surface position indicators

This reduces cockpit clutter by eliminating legacy electromechanical instruments.

ThrustSense® Autothrottle for Business Aircraft

The ThrustSense® Autothrottle System brings FADEC-level automation and protection to turbojet and turbofan business aircraft. From takeoff through landing or go-around, ThrustSense reduces pilot workload and enhances flight safety by automatically controlling thrust while preventing exceedances.

Key benefits include:

  • Automatic fuel flow adjustment for precise EPR/N1 management
  • Stabilized approaches with optimum descent speeds
  • Protection against engine over-temp and over-torque
  • Minimal force required to override for manual operation

This intelligent automation allows pilots to dedicate more attention to mission and situational awareness.

Upgrade Path for Legacy Aircraft

The Liberty Flight Deck is engineered to replace legacy EFIS displays, symbol generators, and round-dial instruments with minimal wiring changes. It integrates capabilities of existing electromechanical indicators—including EHSI, EADI, altimeter, IAS/MACH, VSI, RMI, and standby flight instruments—reducing cockpit complexity and improving efficiency.

Design advantages:

  • Minimal rewiring using existing connectors
  • Rapid graphic display format modification
  • Accelerated FAA certification pathways

Reliability and Safety

Built with fully digital electronics, enhanced processing power, and dual redundancy, the Liberty Flight Deck ensures accuracy, fault tolerance, and reduced downtime. Reversionary display capability and built-in test functions further enhance reliability and mission readiness.
