Glass For The Masses
Avidyne Monday said
it's delivered the 1,000th FlightMax Entegra integrated flight
deck, a demonstration of just how well-unprecedented acceptance of
integrated flight decks for general aviation aircraft.
“Delivering 1,000 systems is a very significant milestone.
Our customers tell us that the strong market acceptance of Entegra
is due in large part to our commitment to providing the simplest
and most intuitive interface for the pilot,” said Dan
Schwinn, Avidyne’s president.
“Integrated flight decks are now the standard for new
piston aircraft,” noted Mark Sandeen, Avidyne’s vice
president of sales & marketing. “Avidyne was the first
company to bring the integrated flight deck to light aircraft at an
affordable price, and we continue to set the pace in the industry.
Since the introduction of our integrated flight deck, we’ve
had a history of delivering a continuous stream of enhancements
such as EMax, flight director, integrated datalink weather,
approach plates and TAWS interface. That pace of innovation will
continue. First in Glass, Best in Glass,” he concluded.
Avidyne could not have reached this historic milestone of 1,000
integrated flight decks without the full support and innovative
leadership of Avidyne's OEM partners including Adam Aircraft,
Cirrus Design, Eclipse Aviation, Lancair and New Piper
Aircraft.
FlightMax Entegra is currently available on more than 12 new
aircraft models, bringing to a realization Schwinn’s original
goals of producing the first fully integrated GA cockpit and
establishing the company as the market leader in integrated flight
deck systems.
