Flight Inspection Systems
Flight Inspection Systems are installed in aircraft, and they have dedicated antennas, receivers/transceivers and sensors to collect (usually real-time acquisition) data from navigation aids under inspection. The data received by this equipment are decoded by flight inspection computers and compared with the real aircraft position, which accuracy is essential. This position can be calculated by several devices and techniques (GPS, inertial systems, barometric systems, landmark systems...) or sent to the flight inspection aircraft by external (usually optical) devices. This process results are displayed on operator/inspector workstations, also installed in the aircraft.
