L-3 Avionics Systems, AEA Exhibit #445
L3 Aviation Products has added new capabilities to its Lynx NGT-9000 Multi-Function Touchscreen transponder.
The first is the ATAS alerting function that takes traffic avoidance to the next level. Lynx ATAS surveys down to the ground providing traffic alerting at ALL altitudes. Using refined ADS-B data, nuisance alerts are a thing of the past, even in congested airport patterns.
The Lynx NGT-9000 also features the new TerrainVision – a cost effective Terrain Advisory option for GA aircraft and helicopters. A Stormscope display interface is also new this year, allowing the WX-500 Stormscope sensor to display real-time lightning data on the NGT-9000 display.
L3 also has a line of ADS-B transponders for business jets in the form of the NXT-700. It’s a plug and play replacement for the MST-67A, and offers form fit compatibility with current TCAS I systems. The NXG-900 WAAS/GPS can be added for those aircraft needing a certified position source.
Stop by the L3 Aviation Product booth to see all our entire line of avionics to help grow your business.
