What is multifunction display aviation?

A multifunction display (MFD) in aviation is a type of electronic instrument panel that provides pilots with a centralized interface for navigating, communicating, and monitoring vital flight information. It integrates multiple functions into a single display, including moving maps, weather data, traffic information, terrain awareness, and flight planning tools. It typically uses a touchscreen interface to allow pilots to interact with the display, and it can be customized to suit the specific needs of the aircraft and crew. MFDs help to improve situational awareness, reduce pilot workload, and enhance safety in all phases of flight. They are commonly used in modern commercial, military, and general aviation aircraft.
