G3 With NEW Release 9 Glass Panel Upgrade Can Be Seen At Tampa Executive Airport

The folks at Leading Edge Aircraft Sales in Tampa are getting set to show off a Cirrus G3 airplane with the brand new Avidyne Entegra Release 9 Avionics -- ready to fly.

Leading Edge is partnering with Sarasota Avionics to install the latest glass panel upgrade from Avidyne. "We will have a demo plane," David Modberg, President of Cirrus Aircraft Sales at Leading Edge, tells ANN.

"We believe that our companies provide the very best solution for this extremely intricate upgrade. Leading Edge brings ten years of Cirrus Service Center experience to the project," he told us. "Along with our years of service to the Cirrus customers we have achieved may certifications including the designation of being one of two Cirrus Super Centers in the country. To put our service simply we handle the every day task all the way up to major accident recoveries/removal which requires separation of the fuselage from the wing."

“Entegra Release 9 is the culmination of years of research and development and we are delighted with the results, having created the easiest-to-use flight deck in all of aviation,” said Dan Schwinn, Avidyne’s President and CEO on the Avidyne website when the upgrade was announced. “Entegra owners now have access to all the benefits of the Release 9 upgrade and they only have to be without their aircraft for a short amount of time in order to get it.”

An Entegra Release 9 equipped Cirrus G3 will be on the ramp at Leading Edge Aviation at Tampa Executive Airport on July 18th from 1000-1700. Reservations are recommended.

By the way... ANN's own SR22 G3 Turbo is scheduled to be there justr befoe heading off to the Holy land Of Oshkosh... with a number of really cool new features that we'll be talking about in the next few days, but if you see it be SURE to look over the panel... you WILL be impressed.
