Blue Mountain Calls It Quits

Website Information Confirms Rumors

ANN has been receiving tips the last few days that changes were apparently underway at Blue Mountain Avionics (BMA), a small company which created some very powerful and economical EFIS products targeting the experimental market. Now, fears the operation might be shutting down have been confirmed by company founder Greg Richter on the BMA website:
 
"Well, it's been fun. We developed a whole new class of machine, started an industry, dominated it, and are now leaving it. BMA will be ceasing production and spinning down. The best way to contact us is via email: support@bluemountainavionics.com.  Please don't call, since the office is not staffed on a scheduled basis.

 "We'll still be around to service, support and assist as time permits, homebuilders helping other homebuilders, but BMA is essentially closed.  This website is paid up and will be around for a few years at least, and there is some hope (and a fond desire) that we may return to full production when the economy recovers.
 
"Database updates are...available on this site, and service, maintenance and repairs are still available for all BMA products.  We are actively seeking someone to buy the code and continue development. If your interested, please email."

The Blue Mountain Avionics discussion board is buzzing with both appreciative support and understandable anxiety. ANN is trying to get in touch with Richter to gather more details. Stay tuned.
