Max-Viz Obtains First Canadian EVS Certification

Max-Viz, Inc. has announced the first ever Transport Canada Enhanced Vision Systems certification for an EVS-1000 system on a Bombardier Global Express, engineered and installed by Montreal Dealer/Integrator ABC Completions Inc.

The US registered Bombardier Global Express was awarded Canadian Supplemental Type Approval on December 19th and is expected to have the equivalent US STC this month.

"This Transport Canada certification is an enormous win for Max-Viz and our dealer, Montreal based ABC Completions," said Jim Tuttle, Max-Viz CEO. "We do not consider our EVS-1000 a competitor to the future Bombardier Enhanced Vision System (BEVS) rather we believe that it is a complimentary system. Max-Viz products provide an exceptional view of terrain, taxiways, runways and obstacles in the path of the Global Express's large wing span from the upper tail mounted EVS-1000 sensor position."

Gary Nash, President of ABC Completions Inc. concurs, saying, "The EVS-1000 system was installed in less than five days. The EVS image is displayed in the cockpit on a 6.4" LCD display located at an optimum eye level on the copilot's side. The image was also displayed on the Honeywell CD-820 FMS CDUs. Nash added,"On future installations we will offer a similar left side display as well."

Ron Freswick, the West Coast-based Director of Aviation for ABC Completions who will be using the system said, "The ability to see is the greatest need of all and the head-down Max-Viz EVS-1000 Enhanced Vision System is the best safety feature invented for aircraft since Weather Radar."

Max-Viz and its dealers currently hold certifications for the Bell 212/412, CL-601, CL-604, Global Express and Falcon 50. They also have STC's pending for the Falcon 900 series, the Sikorsky S-76, The G-IV/IVSP, the Pilatus PC-12, Lear 35 and Beech 200. Most of these STC's are expected to be in place by Q1 2004. The EVS-2000 Enhanced Vision System, specifically developed for Cessna by Max-Viz is also a standard factory option on the Citation X and Sovereign.
