Falcon Elite II

Falcon Elite II applies new features with the most advanced technologies and represents a major advancement for Falcon Operators. The new Elite II functions and capabilities further enhance operational safety and simplicity while also dramatically improving Falcon 900C and Falcon 900EX aircraft efficiency.

Falcon Elite II is an update which offers a baseline and additional components/options to continue providing worldwide capability. The main component of the Falcon Elite II baseline is the KB02 GPS – Wide Aera Augmentation System (WAAS) which is about 5 times more accurate than a standard GPS. Once baseline is installed, the door is open to many options to improve situational awareness, navigation, surveillance and communication capabilities.
