What does EFVS stand for?

• A. Enhanced Flight Vision System
• B. Enhanced Field Vision System
• C. Electronic Flight Visual System
• D. Enhanced Forward Vision System

Answer: (A)

EFVS stands for Enhanced Flight Vision System. It’s a sensor-based imaging system that provides a video image of the outside world to the pilot—often via a cockpit display or head-up display—using infrared or other sensors to augment natural vision. This helps you see runway environment, terrain, and obstacles in low visibility or at night, improving situational awareness during approaches and landings. The other terms aren’t the standard aviation term for this system, so they don’t fit the acronym as commonly used in flight operations.
