Rockwell Collins has received FAA STC approval for its Pro Line 21 airspace modernization package on the Premier I/IA. The package, now available through all of the manufacturer’s authorized dealers, includes ADS-B Out compliance; synthetic night vision; updated flight management system (FMS) with localizer performance and approach procedures with vertical guidance (LPV/APV), and radius-to-fix legs; and the latest version of the integrated flight information system for aircraft so equipped. Similar upgrade packages have already been approved for certain Hawkers and King Airs.
“With more than 4,900 aircraft flying with our proven and reliable Pro Line 21, we’re committed to providing owners with an ongoing roadmap for the future of their aircraft,” said Rockwell Collins vice president and general manager of business and regional systems Craig Olson. “This update not only covers ADS-B, but also brings a whole new flying experience to pilots through upgrades like FMS enhancements and synthetic vision.”
