As ANN and Aero-TV undertakes its Annual LIVE PROGRAMMING from the floor of the 54th
Annual AEA Convention and Tradeshow, we figured
this was as good an excuse as any to show you some of the things
that got us excited last year in order to get you ready for EVEN
MORE EXCITING things this year! We can't tell you much... YET...
but this year's AEA Convention WILL BE one of the most newsworthy
on record... and if you'll join today, LIVE on Wednesday, at 0930 (PT) or 1230
(ET), we'll be sure to show you what all
the fuss is about... as ONLY ANN can.
Not one of the best-known names in the business, MGL has been
puttering away for a decade and gotten high-marks form a customer
base that I know to be pretty fussy when it comes to avionics.
According to the company, MGL Avionics have shipped tens of
thousands of instruments worldwide since 2001. These folks do it
all... glass panel displays, engine gauges, single gauges, cluster
gauges, auto-pilot components, systems instruments... the
works.
Their latest innovation includes the release of their Generation
2 EFIS systems -- which MGL notes, "takes situational awareness and
flexibility to a new level, providing a reliable, safe solution for
all your instrumentation needs. It is a PFD, an MFD, an engine
monitor, a fuel computer, a GPS navigator, an autopilot and an
interface/display device for a multitude of other devices. And it
provides all of this for a very good price."
Their current EFIS offerings (named Enigma, Voyager and Odyssey)
start at smaller 5.7" display systems all the way to 10.4"
monsters. And by the way... you really need to look at their
mini-EFIS line... the XTreme mini EFIS is pretty impressive for
such a small gauge... though it looks like it can fit just about
anywhere.
Join ANN and Aero-TV as we take a tour of MGL Avionics and let
the brakes cool off on our rental car... Enjoy!
