United Airlines selects Honeywell cockpit tech for Boeing's growing fleet

The IntuVue RDR-4000 3D Weather Radar System is described by Honeywell as the first automatic commercial radar to accurately depict weather in an airplane's flight path. “IntuVue automatically scans the sky at 17 tilt angles—the most in the industry—and delivers a 3D view of the weather through an intuitive display that pilots can quickly and easily reference,” the company said.

Honeywell Connected Recorder-25 allows commercial air transport aircraft to accommodate mandatory flight data and cockpit voice recording requirements. It could potentially result in better maintenance predictability and operational insight through data analytics, according to the OEM.

Honeywell’s TPA 100B Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System and TRA 100B Transponders identify the airplane to surrounding aircraft via an airborne collision avoidance system.

In June, Honeywell demonstrated a new ground control station for eVTOL aircraft in an agreement with Frequentis, an Austrian supplier of communication and information systems for control centers. The ground control station allows remote piloting beyond visual line of sight.
