STC developer and long term EVS operator, I can attest that the
enhanced level of situational awareness brought on by the effective
use of EVS products. Working cooperatively with the Anchorage ACO,
we have developed an STC to enhance the safety of one of the most
operationally diverse aircraft in general / commercial aviation.
Installation of the EVS-100 or 600 via this STC will have a
dramatic impact on risk mitigation and the enhancement of flight
