Aspen Avionics specializes in bringing the most advanced
technology and capability from the commercial and business aviation
markets into General Aviation (GA) cockpits. Its products increase
situational awareness and reduce pilot workload, making it even
easier and safer to fly in both VFR and IFR conditions. The
company's philosophy is that getting the latest avionics technology
shouldn't always mean spending a lot of money -- on equipment, or
on installation.
Aspen's flagship product line is the Evolution Flight Display
system, the most innovative-and affordable-glass cockpit system
ever for certified GA aircraft. The Evolution system enables
aircraft owners to upgrade their primary flight instrument "six
pack" to glass cockpit technology all at once, or in stages.
Easy and inexpensive software upgrades add new features and
capabilities, while future-proofing the system and protecting
owners' investments.
The Evolution Flight Display, announced at EAA AirVenture in
2007, was granted Technical Standard Order (TSO) Authorization by
the FAA for the Evolution Pilot and Pro Primary Flight Displays
(PFDs). With certification and production authority in hand, Aspen
began shipping EFD1000 PFD systems in March 2008. The
certification process for the EFD1000 PFD took approximately 18
months to complete. In May 2008 Aspen Avionics earned a spot
among the Red Herring Top 100, a recognition given to the top
100 private technology startup companies in North America.
The company raised its first round of venture capital in
December 2005, and closed a Series B round in June 2007,
facilitating its continued strong growth.
Led by industry veteran John Uczekaj, Aspen Avionics' team of
top talent-with deep roots in aviation product development and
certification-will continue to grow the company's business through
pioneering solutions for the GA market. The Company's
investors include Granite Ventures, vSpring Capital, Wasatch
Venture Fund, Fort Washington Capital Partners, and Sun Mountain
Capital.
