TSO'd: Aerosonic Digital Altimeter

Says New Technology Provides Platform for Growth and Additional Products

Aerosonic Corporation says it's received Technical Standard Order (TSO) approval from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for their new digital altimeter. This altimeter was selected by Cessna Aircraft Company as standard equipment on their new Citation Mustang Jet.

The technology designed into this instrument provides customers with improved accuracy and reliability, utilizing digital technology instead of traditional mechanical devices. This instrument requires significantly reduced production lead time, resulting in even greater customer satisfaction. With the sales potential covering all aspects of aviation, this digital altimeter represents a strong addition to the existing line, while opening a new path for additional advanced, digitally based products.

The TSO process is the FAA's method for approving materials, parts, processes and appliances used on civil aircraft. The Aerospace Research Center reports that the civil aircraft market, which includes all aircraft except those used by the military, accounts for 21.5%, or $34.6 billion, of total aerospace sales. The TSO approval now makes this product available immediately to all aspects of this marketplace. The instrument passed a series of intensive tests in the process of obtaining the coveted approval, which stands as a true testament to the company's commitment to product excellence.

"This is a bold new time and market for Aerosonic products," said Executive Vice President Mark Perkins. "We have worked hard through this process and are very excited about the opportunities this digital altimeter brings to our industry and to the future of our company. The knowledge gained in developing this sensor-based technology provides the platform for growth through the addition of more sophisticated products applicable to a greater range of aircraft."
