SKYDISPLAY receives FAA STC certification
SKYDISPLAY aligns critical flight information with the pilots outside view and provides head up guidance cues based on the information contained in the aircraft’s primary flight instruments. With the next generation of display technologies, a small footprint has been achieved allowing a HUD to fit into many cockpits that were before not an option, with a significantly lower weight, size, and cost.

Pilot reports have been consistent, the SKYDISPLAY system is top notch.
“Every bit as useful as HUDs on Falcons or Gulfstreams,” Tom Horne, AOPA Turbine
“A HUD for the rest of us,” Matt Thurber, Editor, AIN
“Intuitive. Raises the proficiency of all pilots,” Ric Peri, Aircraft Electronics Association
SKYDISPLAY adds EVS option
A new option for the SKYDISPLAY HUD system is the addition of an Enhanced Vision System (EVS) capability. Initially for those flying Special Operations. HUD EVS systems allow pilots to make it easier to fly around weather, turn night into day, and aid in “seeing” through smoke and light fog all while keeping eyes outside. Special ops operators find the HUD EVS system invaluable such as in firefighting missions to identify and hit hot spots with much greater accuracy. This is also critical in pest control, search and rescue, and agricultural spraying operations when being able to fly safely low to the earth is required.
“The aerial spotter could not find the hot spots. With SKYDISPLAY HUD EVS I was able to find and lead the team to them. 11 targets, all direct hits,” Fire Boss pilot
The HUD EVS system was developed with the assistance of Astronics, maker of the MAX-VIZ thermal imaging systems. The system was installed by Aero Brigham of Decatur, Texas, on AeroBrigham designed mounts for the HUD and EVS, into four Air Tractor AT802F Fire Boss aircraft owned and operated by a contract firefighting fleet.
