Boeing 717


Boeing 717 Fleet Technology Match
Honeywell provides the same advanced FMS technology in the B717 midrange fleet as the other long haul aircraft, allowing it to seamlessly integrate shorter flights to the same major hubs and conditions for connections.

Using common operations and shared navigation databases with many other Boeing aircraft, the FMS reduces the pilot workload while providing similar current capability, including FANS and datalink operations.

The Flight Management System of the B717 is engineered for both growth and long life, with the ability to keep pace with the emerging airspace requirements.
