New Model Now Approved For Over 650 Aircraft
Avidyne Corporation recently announced they have received FAA
Approved Model List - Supplemental Type Certification (AML-STC)
approval for their new EX600 MFD. This AML-STC, which comes
on the heels of the TSO approval that was granted at the end of
December, authorizes installation of the EX600 MFD in over 650 Part
23 Class I, II, and III aircraft makes and models.
"Customer and dealer response to our recent EX600 introduction
has been fantastic-especially for its Map Panning and QuickPan
capabilities," said Patrick Herguth, Avidyne's Chief Operating
Officer. "This AML-STC provides the approval basis for our
dealers to install our newest and best-ever MFD in a wide variety
of general aviation airplanes and helicopters."
The EX600 offers a 5.8-in display designed for readability in
direct sunlight along with the the ability to display CMax approach
charts, support for European VFR Charts, and standard interfaces
for traffic and color lightning.
With interfaces to nineteen different radar models, the EX600 is
the leader in radar-replacement MFDs, meaning it can act as a
display replacement for many out-dated and un-repairable CRT radar
displays, while adding significant situational awareness and
utility enhancements.
EX600 is now shipping with prices starting at $9,990.
Bendix, Bendix/King, and Collins interfaces are available at
additional cost.
Avidyne announced a trade-in program for older generation MFDs
toward a new EX600. Existing EX500 owners are being offered an
upgrade to the EX600 starting at only $5,495.
