An electronic flight bag (EFB) system for use on a mobile platform, for example, a commercial or military aircraft. The EFB system includes first and second independent processors that run first and second independent software applications. The first software application may be a Type C application requiring a high level of governmental agency certification for use on an aircraft while the second application may be a commercially available, off-the-shelf software application that requires no certification. The two processors share a common display, although the first processor is provided with control over the display so that use of the display by the second processor can be inhibited or limited by the first processor as may be needed to display more critical flight or aircraft related information. The first processor is also provided with control over a switching subsystem that can interrupt the flow of information from external I/O devices to and from the second processor, if needed. |
