Partners With Avmats To Provide High-Viz Lights
Aero-News has learned
that corporate aircraft support and maintenance provider Avmats has
combined forces with performance leader LoPresti aviation to
deliver LoPresti Boom Beam lighting to the Hawker 700 Legacy Series
bizjet.
"The Boom Beam fixes a critical business issue on the Hawker 800
series" said Todd Lohenry, Business Development Manager for
LoPresti Aviation. "Our lighting is warranted for 5 years or 5,000
hours and is guaranteed never to burn through a Hawker lens cover
–- the surface temperature on our lights is less than 40
degrees above ambient temperature."
LoPresti says the relative coolness of its lights eliminates a
huge source of headaches for Hawker owners and pilots... but more
importantly, the LoPresti lights also deliver 1.1 million candela
on landing –- over 3 times the available light of stock
Hawker lighting.
LoPresti Boom Beams are already standard on every Cirrus Design,
Adam Aircraft and Lancair aircraft... and are a factory standard
option on the Hawker 800 series.
While LoPresti owns the STC, Boom Beams for the 700 series are
only available through Avmats. Avmats and LoPresti have entered
into this exclusive agreement to provide a cost effective
alternative for a state of the art upgrade to the 700 series
aircraft.
"We're thrilled to be
working with LoPresti and to be the sole source for the
installation of Boom Beams for the 700 series" said Kevin
Malutinok, Director of Business Development for Avmats, "The
benefits of the Boom Beam are well known to Hawker pilots and we're
happy to be the firm providing them to legacy Hawker owners."
Avmats believes that in many instances, installation of the Boom
Beam could be coordinated with scheduled maintenance without
additional down time. Depending on demand, additional STC's may be
sought for earlier model Hawkers.
