Smallest Slide-Mounted 15-inch LCD Introduced
Large LCD screen is viewable in both stowed and deployed positions
Flight Display Systems today announced a new slide mount for the aircraft cabin. The new FD151SMT (spec sheet - $7,450 List price, including 15-inch Low Profile LCD screen) features a 37% space savings over previous models. It is the most compact slide mount available on the market today. Additionally, the LCD is visible in both the stowed and deployed positions.
“Saving space is always important,” said David Gray, Flight Display Systems’ Founder. “Our new Slide Mount can fit in small cabin spaces. We see applications on the Pilatus PC-12, Hawkers, Citations, and larger aircraft.”The launch customer for the 15-inch Slide Mount is EPPS Aviation in Atlanta, Georgia.
“Flight Display Systems has innovative solutions for in-flight entertainment,” said Mike LaConto, Avionics Manager at EPPS Aviation. “We worked closely with Flight Display Systems to provide our customer with a product that will produce a quality presentation.”Slide mount monitors are important for a variety of reasons.
- They allow full cabin visibility by positioning the display in the center aisle.
- The monitors are operational while stowed.
- Inlaid bulkhead walls with expensive finishing can be kept intact using a slide mount monitor. High seatbacks are also a typical obstruction to bulkhead visibility.
