bringing stress-free comfort to air travel
With its fleet of new Airbus A340s, China Airlines brings to the
skies the most comprehensive and advanced aircraft and aviation
technology available. What this means to the passenger is a new
level of comfort, convenience and security, making every flight
a carefree, relaxing experience.

|
|
|
| Reliable propulsion system
carrying you farther and faster |
|
| |
| |
China Airlines' new A340s
are powered by CFM56 turbofans, the quietest and cleanest
engines available, with unparalleled reliability for added
layers of security and power throughout your flight.
|
|
|
| Advanced avionics providing
crews with fail-safe technology and equipment |
|
| |
| |
The A340s' flight deck
is a flawless integration of flight controls and the latest
computer technology. Advanced second-generation electronic
instrumentation provides the flight crew with fast and
accurate flight information through an innovative six-color
digital display system, replacing more complicated traditional
flight instrumentation
|
| |
Through exhaustive research and development,
all systems have been designed to provide maximum flight
safety and convenience for the flight crew. Input from
the side stick controller is transmitted through the Fly
by Wire (FBW) system to the aircraftis control surfaces,
greatly enhancing control accuracy, stability, and flight
efficiency.
|
| |
With the A340s' unique Flight Management,
Guidance, and Envelope Protection System (FMGES), navigation,
communication, aircraft performance calculation, auto-pilot,
automatic throttle and aircraft systems displays, as well
as the Global Positioning System (GPS) and Future Air
Navigation System (FANS), automated flight management
is more efficient than ever. All of this is designed for
maximum safety by decreasing the workload of the flight
crew.
|
| |
The latest design in Traffic Collision
Avoidance System II (TCASII) provides ample warning of
other aircraft in the vicinity; and the Enhanced Ground
Proximity Warning System (EGPWS) automatically provides
information on terrain and structures along the flight
path and around airports.
|
|
|
Extensive
and intensive training assuring professional and experienced
crews |
| |
| |
Our advanced A340s are
matched by exceptionally well-trained pilots. More than
100 China Airlines pilots have been through exhaustive
training and testing by Airbus Industrie. Special emphasis
has also been placed on the development of seed flight-safety
instructors.
|
| |
In addition, a US$14 million full-function
A340 flight simulator helps pilots to enhance their flight
experience. To maintain flight crew capabilities at the
highest level, channels for information interchange and
pilot observation exchange has been established with other
A340 operators such as Lufthansa, Singapore Airlines,
and Cathay Pacific Airways.
|
| |
Cockpit Resource Management (CRM)
and system controls used throughout the flight, as well
as post-flight analysis of crew control process data assures
a closely linked flight safety management system.
At China Airlines, flight safety is not just a commitment,
but an uncompromising principle.
