While at Sun ‘n Fun 2016, ANN CEO and Editor-In-Chief, Jim Campbell, talked with Dynon Avionics president, Robert Hamilton, to get the details about something that is a game changer.
Dynon is well known in the experimental aircraft and light sport aircraft community for supplying avionics that do not require an FAA STC for installation. Their EFIS-D10A has been a popular choice for owners of experimental and light sport aircraft, but now it can be installed in type-certificated aircraft through the use of a single STC that is held by the Experimental Aircraft Association.
Under this concept, the owner of an aircraft may simply purchase the STC from the EAA and has the electronic unit installed without the need for a specific make and model aircraft approval. Hamilton said they have been working with the EAA and the FAA for some time to make this happen.
As you watch the video, and follow the interview, you’ll get the details about this revolutionary concept that Dynon has worked out, and it could start a trend in the general aviation industry for a simplification of upgrading existing type certificated aircraft with modern electronic systems.
