Avidyne Display STC’d On Cessnas

Southern Star Avionics, Mobile, Ala., was awarded a supplemental type certificate by FAA for retrofit of the Avidyne Envision EXP5000 primary flight display (PFD) on Cessna 210, 320, 335, and 340 models.

The announcement follows other models added in 2008 to the STC Approved Model List (AML), including pre-2003 Cirrus SR-20 and 22, several models in the Cessna 400 series, and King Air models, Southern Star said. The STC also received Brazilian approval for some of the models listed on the AML.

The Envision EXP5000 features a 10.4-inch screen, gives owners of early-model Cessnas an upgrade option to a modern glass PFD.
