Ingenio Aerospace has received Transport Canada supplemental type certificates (STCs) covering the installation of its Cockpit Tablet electronic flight bag (EFB) on Bombardier Global and 600-series Challenger business jets. The Montreal-based company said it expects to both the FAA and EASA to sign off on the approvals by year-end.
According to Ingenio, the Cockpit Tablet EFB makes it easier for pilots to access tablet devices during all phases of flight, including takeoff and landing. There are already around 1,150 Globals and 2,040 Challenger 600=series aircraft in service worldwide, and the STC also applies to new-build models.
The certification covers devices with a charging capacity of up to 60 Watts, which is expected to meet the increasing power needs of devices for some time. Currently, most tablets require 15 Watts for a fast charge via a USB port. Ingenio's latest EFB features a USB-C connection.
According to the company, the turnkey package includes EFB mounts, USB chargers, tablet holder, and complete electrical installation with an optional USB 2.0 data passthrough. It also features structural brackets for both the pilot and copilot positions.
“USB power delivery is a well-established industry standard and more recently the European Committeee for Standardization has mandated use of USB type-C connectors,” said Ingenio president and CEO James Bell.
