AEA2012 Sponsor: Aspen Avionics
We specialize in bringing the most advanced technology and capability into general aviation cockpits. Our products increase situational awareness and reduce pilot workload, making it even easier and safer to fly in both VFR and IFR conditions.
Our philosophy is that getting the latest avionics technology shouldn’t always mean spending a lot of money—on equipment or on installation.
Our flagship product line, the Evolution Flight Display system, continues to expand with the features and functions that make flying with glass panel technology so rewarding. Super-reliable solid-state AHRS technology, built-in emergency battery and GPS, intuitive digital HSI with GPS flight plan overlay, GPS steering, synthetic vision with built-in Terrain Warning System, optional traffic and weather, and geo-referenced approach charts, are just a few of the advanced features that can reduce pilot workload and greatly increase situational awareness.
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 steady stream of product enhancements and upgrades makes the Aspen philosophy a reality. Aspen has seen many major milestones since the Evolution Primary Flight Display (PFD) system was first certified in March 2008. The Multi-function Flight Display (MFD) was certified in September 2009. Aspen’s MFDs are built on the same certified hardware and software platform as the award-winning PFDs, and feature high resolution moving maps, terrain awareness, and traffic displays, Stormscope® WX-500, and a suite of the XM WX® aviation weather products (with compatible sensors).
Aspen Avionics’ first helicopter installation took place in October 2009, when a PFD and MFD was installed in an OH-58 (Bell 206) operated by the Dale County (Alabama) Sheriff’s Office.
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 general aviation market.
