Announces TSO Submittal For NGT-9000 Model
L-3 Aviation Products (L-3 AP) has officially launched its Lynx MultiLink Surveillance System (MSS) line of Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) products. The company also announced that it has submitted for Technical Standard Order (TSO) authorization for the Lynx NGT-9000, one of several models in the new line.
“Lynx NGT-9000 is unlike anything in the marketplace and delivers a unique set of features for General Aviation pilots,” said Larry Riddle, L-3 Aviation Products vice president of marketing & sales for business, regional and general aviation. “In addition to getting ahead of ADS-B compliance, the unique benefits of a single-box solution, straightforward installation and the reasonable cost of the NGT-9000, make it an ideal product.”
Mr. Riddle added that advance market interest has been very strong and the company has already received early orders for Lynx.
The Lynx family includes five models, ranging from an ADS-B Out only unit (NGT-1000) to models with Wi-Fi display options for Personal Electronic Devices (PEDs), as well as models for the display of ADS-B information on dedicated cockpit multifunction displays (MFDs). All Lynx models provide ADS-B Out compliance to FAA 14 CFR 91.227.
The most notable model, the Lynx NGT-9000, has an intuitive touch-screen display that is a form-factor replacement for existing transponders. The NGT-9000 offers a wide array of features and is the most logical choice for pilots looking to take full advantage of the ADS-B NextGen flight environment. The unit also supports 1090ES (Mode S Extended Squitter) ADS-B Out, as well as 1090 MHz and 978 MHz (UAT) ADS-B In. This provides ADS-B traffic (ADS-B, ADS-R and TIS-B), as well as FIS-B input.
Internal active traffic and/or ADS-B antenna diversity are available options. Both panel-mount (NGT-9000) and remote-mount (NGT-9000R) versions are also available. A Wi-Fi interface module provides connectivity to iPad and Android.
