Upgrade Comprises Universal InSight Flight Display
Trimec Aviation, a certified FAA Part 145 Repair Station (#18TR248C) based on Texas’s Fort Worth Meacham International Airport (FTW), and Universal Avionics (UA) are completing the first Falcon 2000/EX aircraft Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for UA’s InSight Flight Display System.
Subject system replaces the Rockwell-Collins legacy Pro Line 4 suite and includes a Satellite-Based Augmentation System (SBAS) Flight Management System (FMS), Universal’s Connectivity Ecosystem, and UniLink Communications Management system, which supports Required Navigation Performance (RNP) 0.3 instrument approaches and Controller Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC) digital clearances, Future Air Navigation Systems (FANS) 1A+, and Aeronautical Telecommunications Network (ATN) B1.
Trimec Aviation president Mike Rabadi stated: “We are proud of our Fort Worth technical team for making this possible and look forward to welcoming other Falcon 2000/EX operators looking for a solution for their aging and obsolete avionics. This upgrade will not only increase the value of their asset but improve operating efficiency, enhance pilot safety, and increase the aircraft’s available payload.”
Trimec Aviation general manager John Holland remarked: “It’s exciting to reach the final stage of this important STC for Falcon 2000/EX operators. The Control Display Units (CDUs) and FMS for the Pro Line 4 are irreplaceable and are no longer supported, so this is a timely solution that Trimec is ready to provide. We look forward to talking with owners and operators of these Falcon’s at NBAA-BACE and invite them to see us at #N3431.”
Universal Avionics CEO Dror Yahav set forth: “We are thrilled to deliver a modern, sustainable solution for the Falcon 2000/EX in partnership with Trimec Aviation. The InSight Display System has achieved certification on a variety of business jets, upgrading them to the latest available operational capabilities and significantly extending the aircraft’s longevity for years to come.”
In 2022, Trimec Aviation was recognized as an Outstanding Dealer of the Year by Universal Avionics.
