Ultra Electronics - Flightline Systems introduced Auracle system
some months back... and the engine monitoring game got quite a
boost in the process, as the Auracle line worked heard and well to
prove itself the most advanced, reliable engine management system
available today for single and now twin-engine aircraft.
The system offers comprehensive engine and fuel situational
awareness, delivered on a stunning full-color glass panel display,
with intuitive controls and easily recognizable indicators that
mimic familiar analog gauges.
Everything about Auracle was designed to lower pilot workload,
improve operational safety, and increase your fuel economy. The
anti-reflective coated active-matrix LCD screen is backlit and
easily viewable even in full sunlight, and offers a wide angle of
view with both manual and automatic dimming features. Auracle is
easily read and quickly interpreted, immediately alerting the pilot
to any abnormal engine condition and providing the information
needed to make critical decisions rapidly.
And now Auracle has set its sights on the turbine powerplant
market. In one of their initial efforts to storm the gates of the
turbine engine instrumentation arena, Ultra Electronics Flightline
Systems teamed up with Soloy to customize their AuRACLE product
line specifically for the Eurocopter AS350B2. After considerable
research and due diligence, Dave Stauffer Soloy's CEO, determined
Ultra Electronics - Flightline Systems had the right combination of
turbine experience, a burgeoning glass panel product line, and was
the right company to bring this product to market.
"Soloy saw a real need to replace and simplify a multitude of
old engine instruments we were working with while converting
AS350B2's to our LTS-101 Honeywell engine platform. Ultra has a
leading position in fixed and rotary wing engine instrumentation
and our Soloy team knew the quality of Ultra's engineering and
hardware would make them the best fit for our program." Mr.
Stauffer also sees greater product support for the operator. "We
are replacing several instruments made by multiple companies and
combining them into one instrument supported by a single US based
company, Soloy."
