Overture Flight Deck
Designed around pilots with safety at the forefront, Overture’s flight deck will be innovative but instantly familiar.
Advanced Avionics Suite
Overture’s flight deck builds on the next-generation Honeywell Anthem avionics suite and will offer pilots unprecedented situational awareness and ease of control. The avionics suite will be tailored for Overture’s specific mission requirements, providing passengers with the safest possible flight experience.
Force-feedback Sidesticks
Force-feedback sidesticks allow pilots to control the plane while physically feeling both aircraft response and inputs made by the co-pilot or autopilot.
Augmented Reality Vision System
Overture has an advanced augmented reality vision system for takeoff and landing, eliminating the need for the droop nose used on Concorde. Universal Avionics’ head-worn device seamlessly integrates cameras and sensors, using augmented reality to greatly enhance situational awareness and passenger safety.
17-inch High Definition Touchscreens
State-of-the-art displays eliminate the hundreds of breakers and buttons found in legacy cockpits. Every airplane function is accessible through software while physical controls—such as stick, throttle, and landing gear—are offered for safety-critical functions.
Over-the-air Upgrades
Overture will receive over-the-air software upgrades, meaning new features and improvements will arrive regularly. Airlines can control how upgrades are rolled out across fleets.
Former Chief Concorde Pilot Flies Overture Simulator
Mike Bannister, who flew more hours on Concorde than any other pilot, stepped into Overture’s next-generation flight deck.
“I’ve long believed that Overture is the rightful successor to Concorde. After experiencing Overture’s flight deck, which is incredibly well designed and delightful to fly, my excitement and enthusiasm for this aircraft has only intensified.”
Mike Bannister
former Chief Concorde Pilot for British Airways
