Ensuring Flight Safety

The advancement of Urban Air Mobility and increase in commercial travel will challenge the modern airspace.
Gain visibility and control of hazards to keep your flights safe – from block time and ground turns through all phases of flight.

Airplane runway accidents make up 25% of commercial aviation incidents. Reduce the risk of airplane accidents with Honeywell solutions, designed to aid pilots in safe taxi, takeoff and landing. Our solutions can help:

  • Increase flight crew awareness
  • Pinpoint precise airplane location to aid landings
  • Preview runways and airports

We developed the first Ground Proximity Warning System in the 1970s and has continuously improved the technology since. We offer multiple Enhanced GPWS products that can:

  • Protect against controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) and wind shear
  • Provide unprecedented situational awareness through synthetic vision
  • Offer aural alerts, visual annunciations and terrain display

Our weather management solutions use tools such as 3-D volumetric scanning, 360-degree views and in-air pilot-sourced weather information to:

  • Improve weather hazard detection by 26%
  • Reduce turbulence-related incidents by 45%
  • Inform routing and maneuvering decisions
