The four core avionics categories, GPS and inertial navigation and why they are flown paired rather than one instead of the other, flight management and glass-cockpit displays, and avionics data bus basics.
This module maps avionics into four categories — navigation, communication, flight management, and displays — then goes deep on the two navigation systems that matter most: GPS and inertial navigation, and why real aircraft fuse both rather than picking one. From there it covers how a flight management system turns raw navigation data into guidance, how glass-cockpit displays present that guidance, and how avionics boxes actually exchange data over ARINC 429 and MIL-STD-1553 buses.
By the end of this module you should be able to explain why GPS and inertial navigation are run together rather than as alternatives, and why sharing processing hardware across avionics functions creates a certification obligation this program's certification capstone returns to directly.
