Collins Aerospace, an RTX company, has announced at NBAA 2025 that the Venue smart monitor integrated with Airshow HD will enter service on a Dassault Falcon 7X in November 2025.
The Venue smart monitor is an entertainment solution for business aviation, offering an all-in-one platform for flight information and in-flight entertainment (IFE) in 4K resolution. The aim of the monitor is to simplify maintenance and reduce power consumption and the need for excess hardware, and is available in a range of sizes to suit any size of business aircraft. The Dassault Falcon 7X will be equipped with two smart monitors into the cabin bulkhead, with the installation to take place in Dassault Falcon Jet’s service centre in Arkansas.
The added Airshow HD solution is a mobile application that users can download to extend the functions of the smart monitor to a personal device for use anywhere in the cabin.
“The activation of the first Venue smart monitor with Airshow HD marks a significant shift in business aviation in-flight entertainment, bringing pristine resolutions, streaming content and an enhanced user interface to more jets than ever before,” said Craig Bries, vice president and general manager of Commercial Avionics at Collins Aerospace. “The standalone system is flexible and simple to install, enabling phased upgrade paths to meet a variety of entertainment needs, cabin layouts and budgets.”
