Egypt Air has selected Rockwell Collins to provide avionics for
seven new Airbus A330s to be delivered between June 2004 and February
2006. Rockwell Collins previously provides avionics for the airline's
five A320-200s. The Egypt Air avionics package mirrors that of
Air New Zealand, supporting a datalink communications system,
navigation and surveillance sensors, GLU920 multimode receiver
and WXR-2100 multiscan weather radar. Rockwell Collins' datalink
communication system supports current and future digital CNS/ATM
environments, including ACARS, future air navigation systems (FANS),
VHF datalink Mode 2 and Aeronautical Telecommunications Network
(ATN)
