This STC provides IFR LPV and LNAV + V approval for single- and dual-IFD installations in 40 different models and derivatives of the French-manufactured Robin range of aircraft.

“Avidyne’s IFD series FMS/GPS systems are incredibly capable and easy to use, and we see the fleet of Robin aircraft—which are very popular throughout Europe—as a great target market for their capabilities,” said Florian Kindzorra, Chief Operating Officer for airplus.  “Avidyne makes great products and we look forward to working with them on certifying and installing their products in other aircraft models as well.”

“We are delighted to have airplus as a certification partner and dealer for the IFD Series,” said Steve Gubbins, Avidyne’s Director of European Sales.  “Through their expertise, we have a wide-reaching STC that allows owners of these highly popular Robin aircraft to take advantage all of the benefits of the Avidyne IFD systems, including LPV and LNAV+V approaches, Synthetic Vision, and wireless connectivity.”

Avidyne IFD4XX systems start at $9,499. IFD5XX systems start at $14,999.
