The Electronic Flight Display System(EFDS) is an updated version of the Flight Display System(FDS). It is defined as the flight instrument, associated controls, and its interface to the aircraft, and is designed to provide the pilot, co-pilot, or Navigation/Communication(NAV/COMM) Officer with a comprehensive, unambiguous presentation of navigation information adequate for both worldwide tactical and non-tactical navigation. The display unit uses a flat panel domestic Active Matrix Liquid Crystal Display(AMLCD). The FDS functionally replaces the P-3 electro-mechanical Horizontal Situation Indicator(ID-1540/A), electro-mechanical Flight Director Indicators(FDI)(ID-1556), selected functions of the Navigation Availability Advisory Lights, and integrates GPS navigation with the flight instruments. Additional information such as navigational aid waypoint locations, GPS annunciation, and FDS status pages are also displayed. 2, record 1, English, - electronic%20engine%20display%20system
