Abstract

An information and notification system onboard an aircraft includes a databus that receives information transmitted from outside the aircraft via an interface and a director or control unit, as well as information from onboard data storage units via a flight attendant panel, whereby the information content can be selected, changed, and controlled. The databus may be a hard-wired or wireless databus, by which the information is provided to variable universal notification displays incorporated in passenger service units in the passenger cabin. The display can thus provide variable and selectable information content for the passengers.
