n a very real sense, avionics design, manufacturing and
installation is about solving problems: How to communicate?
How to navigate? How to monitor an aircraft’s systems and
ensure safe operation? How to entertain and inform passengers?
And how to squeeze all of these solutions into a flying machine
that can still leave the ground and
reach its destination comfortably,
safely, reliably and repeatedly?
When unique challenges arise
in aircraft operation and design,
engineers, technicians and operators
devise solutions and implement them.
That the avionics industry is capable
of identifying, responding to and meeting the challenges posed by an evolving
market was clearly demonstrated during
the ever-popular Aircraft Electronics Association New Product Introductions session at the 56th annual AEA
International Convention & Trade Show in Las Vegas, Nevada.
On March 26, some 27 companies from all industry segments
presented information on their latest and greatest products during the show’s Opening Ceremonies.
Need in-cabin Wi-Fi and multimedia storage/server
solutions? How many do you want? Looking for a flexible,
computer-assisted set of tools or high-tech materials to fabricate instrument panels and other cockpit components, all
in-house? Right over here. How about advanced LED cabin
mood lighting, USB-based recharging stations, portable

touchscreen test equipment or even a stability augmentation
system for popular helicopters? You came to the right place.
But what about traditional avionics – the electronic
communication and navigation equipment installed in an
aircraft’s instrument panel – did the AEA Convention include any new, sexy boxes? Of course. Freshly
introduced products from Aspen Avionics, Avidyne and Garmin, to name but
three, incorporate new, lightweight
technologies and leverage subscription-free ADS-B In traffic and
weather information while helping
ensure compliance with the January 2020 ADS-B Out requirement.
Those companies and others also are
incorporating increasingly sophisticated
support for portable devices like the iPad,
enhancing their growing popularity and utility in the cockpit
for tasks including flight planning, charting and situational
awareness.
Does the average avionics shop or aircraft operator need
all these products? We’ll let the customer decide. But it’s
nice to have options. It’s also nice to know what’s available
if a customer requests it, or just to understand where to look
for solutions to uncommon problems. With that in mind, here
is a summary of the 27 companies that made presentations
during the AEA’s New Product Introductions session at the
MGM Grand Hotel & Convention Center in Las Vegas.
