Rockwell Collins Earns STC For King Air Pro Line 21 IDS Retrofits

Aero-News has learned Rockwell Collins has earned a new Supplemental Type Certification (STC) for installation of its Pro Line 21 Integrated Display System on King Air 200 and King Air 300 aircraft.

Sources at the avionics and electronics company tell ANN this installation and STC will be performed by Superior Aircraft Maintenance in Medford, OR. The completed STC will be owned by Rockwell Collins, and will be available to Rockwell Collins dealers.

The company has also introduced a new website to allow operators to configure a retrofit solution to meet their operational requirements.

"Our Pro Line 21 IDS upgrade provides the latest in avionics technology that greatly increases aircraft value with less expense and downtime than a major retrofit," said Denny Helgeson, vice president and general manager, Business and Regional Systems for Rockwell Collins. "This certification marks the continued expansion of the proven Pro Line 21 IDS solution."

The Pro Line 21 IDS King Air installation integrates with the aircraft's existing autopilot and sensors. The system includes three 8-inch by 10-inch liquid crystal displays, a digital weather radar and Integrated Flight Information System (IFIS) providing electronic charts, approaches, airport diagrams and NOTAMS. An option to the IFIS package, included as part of the original STC, is XM Datalink graphical weather, providing unmatched weather graphics.

Rockwell Collins' new Pro Line 21 IDS website allows operators to Build-A-Flight-Deck. Operators select the level of upgrade that interests them and configure an avionics solution from a menu of Pro Line 21 capabilities. The site also identifies pending and completed supplemental type certifications available for Pro Line 21 IDS.

With over 17,000 employees worldwide, Rockwell Collins specializes in flight deck avionics, cabin electronics, mission communications and information management.
