L-3's Newest Products, With VP Of Business Development Larry Riddle

Today, ANN's Paul Plack talks with Larry Riddle, VP Business Development at L-3 Avionics Systems, about two new products introduced at AirVenture. The Trilogy ESI 1000 is a new, electronic replacement for the traditional analog instruments currently seen as backup systems in most glass-panel-equipped general aviation aircraft. L-3's SmartDeck Integrated Flight Controls and Display System has added Synthetic Vision, with resolution superior to competing products.

This feature is in addition to our daily news briefing -- available in either a quick "Touch And Go" format, or an expanded Aero-Briefing -- where you'll hear these stories:

Three are dead in a mid-air over Wyoming...

United pilots tell the FAA their airline may be skimping on maintenance...

And a transatlantic helicopter speed record falls in grand style

...And more

Our DAILY programs consist of (at least) three separate products.

• ANN's Daily 'Touch & Go' Aero-Cast: A quick look at the most recent news of the day... short, succinct and to the point. The usual 'Touch & Go' takes but a few minutes and is a summary, only, of the day's events... and it only takes a few minutes of your time.
• ANN's Daily Briefing Aero-Cast: The Daily ANN Report (ANNRep for short), is a more comprehensive look at the day's news. We give you the whole buzz... the news and features that occupy the forefront of aviation news as well as solid background on the subjects that aviators and other aviation professionals need to stay informed on.
• ANN's Daily 'ASR' Feature Aero-Cast: Our daily 'Aero-News Special Report' involves a more in-depth view of a story or two that dominated (or will be dominating) the day's news. Far more detailed than any single story in our standard ANN Daily Reports, this is a solid chance to get a close look at the stories and topics that matter. ASR features may include exclusive interviews with Aviation's Newsmakers, ANN's Special Investigative reports and solid analysis of the stories that will have undeniable impact on the world of aviation and aerospace.

Check them out, let us know what you think and be sure to keep those news-tips and program suggestions coming... ANN is ALL about what YOU want to know about in the world of aviation and aerospace.
