INTRODUCTION
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The CMA-9000 FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (FMS) provides a complete Global Navigation System (GNS)
and area navigation (RNAV) solution for world-wide four-dimensional aircraft navigation in the oceanic/remote,
en-route, terminal and non-precision approach. It includes extensive flight management capabilities and a full
range of navigation and flight planning features, together with simple route and flight plan creation and
modification procedures. A world-wide subscription navigation database, stored in a non-volatile memory,
provides the CMA-9000 FMS with information on waypoints, navaids and airports. In addition the database is
capable of storing customer defined routes and waypoints. The CMA-9000 FMS is a Flight Management
System (FMS) which also integrates the functionality of Radio Management System (RMS) and Control Display
Unit (CDU) into a standalone, cockpit mounted enclosure.
The CMA-9000 FMS accepts data from the following external navigation sensors, if installed:
Sensors Civil
Certified/Approved/Military
Distance Measuring Equipment (DME)
Civil certified
VHF Omni-directional Range (VOR)
Civil certified
TACAN
Civil and Military installations
External GPS
Civil certified or Military (not approved for civil certified
installation)
External Embedded GPS/INS (EGI)
Military (not approved for civil certified installation)
Inertial Reference System (IRS)
Civil certified
Doppler Velocity Sensor (DVS)
Military (not approved for civil certified installation)
Air Data Computer
Civil certified
Heading Source (AHRS)
Civil certified
AHRS (when used with Kalman Filtered Navigator)
Civil certified
Information from these sensors is combined with air reference data inputs of heading, true air speed and altitude
to determine aircraft position. This position is then used for navigating along a programmed flight plan created
by selecting waypoints along a desired route from the navigation database (flight planning).
In dual/triple CMA-9000 FMS installations, the systems can be configured in either independent or synchronized
mode automatically upon startup.
Flight management capabilities include:
•
Multi-sensor navigation modes with available sensors
•
Standard Instrument Departure (SID)
•
Standard Terminal Arrival Routes (STAR)
•
GPS instrument approaches
•
Direct-to/intercept navigation, holding patterns, procedure turns, arcs, offset tracks and search patterns
•
Automatic waypoint sequencing, with and without turn anticipation
•
Required and actual navigation performance (RNP/ANP)
