Business Wire, Oct 8, 2008
IS&S expects FAA certification of new program within 90 days
EXTON, Pa. & ORLANDO, Fla. -- Today at the 61(st) NBAA Convention in Orlando, Florida, Innovative Solutions & Support, Inc. (NASDAQ:ISSC) launched a Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) program with Lateral Precision Performance with Vertical Guidance (LPV) for its PC-12 Cockpit/IP[TM] Flat Panel Display System.
Introduced in July 2008 as part of an initiative to provide enhanced features for PC-12 owners, WAAS capability is now being offered by IS&S for both single-side and full-cockpit display architectures, allowing PC-12 operators to fly precision approaches at smaller airports. IS&S will submit the WAAS autopilot coupled LPV approach for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certification. The Company expects to receive certification within 90 days.
"We're pleased to make WAAS capability with an LPV approach available to our existing and new PC-12 customers," says Roman Ptakowski, President of Innovative Solutions & Support. "Today, there are more than 1,000 WAAS approaches in use, and we expect that number to grow by 600 each year moving forward. In coupling autopilot with LPV approach, we are proud to offer PC-12 pilots the ability to fly precision approaches, which will open up even more airfields for their use."
For additional information on IS&S' WAAS LPV for the PC-12, visit IS&S Booth 4137 at the 61st NBAA Convention through today, Wednesday, October 8.
