The Rockwell Collins AMS-5000 Avionics Management System provides you with advanced flight planning and navigation capability designed specifically for the mid-range business aircraft. Composed of the AMS-5000 and the advanced GPS-4000S WAAS-enabled Global Positioning System Sensor, the system offers ease of operation in today's complex and demanding operating environment.

Its available functionality extends operational flexibility and enhances situational awareness through such capabilities as: full flight phase, multiple waypoint vertical navigation; databased Departure Procedures, Standard Terminal Arrival Routes and approaches; and an integrated Electronic Flight Instrument System and radar control. The GPS-4000S provides the integrity and monitoring to operate in today's airspace and supports growth to precision approach certification.

Key Features & Benefits
*Reduces pilot workload: Enables automatic FMS-to-ILS transfers in the terminal area, along with a scratchpad data entry structure that allows rapid data entry or retrieval for system use.
*Enhanced situational awareness: Provides FMS map information and text data eyes forward.
*Increases safety: Automatically executes nonprecision GPS approaches, GPS overlay approaches and multisensor RNAV and VOR approaches; it also provides missed-approach guidance.
*Vspeeds: Provides automatic Vspeed calculation and transfer function.
*Fuel prediction: Get time and fuel planning data plus predictions based on fuel flow and groundspeed.
*Integrated database: Includes DP and STAR procedures, all ARINC 424-specified leg types that are flown automatically when entered in the flight plan. Flight plan definition by jet or victor airway entry with entry and exit waypoint specification on the selected airway.
*Integrated navigation solution: Based on a multitude of sensor inputs, including GPS, VOR, DME and IRS combinations.
*Integrated storage: Allows storage for up to 100 pilot-defined waypoints and 100 pilot-defined routes, each with 100 waypoints.
*Real time: Provides offsets, intercepts, holding patterns and holding pattern entries to accommodate real-time air traffic instructions.
