Retrofit installation of the Entegra Release 9 system completed in under two weeks;  Entegra Release 9 Upgrade provides Cirrus owners with the easiest-to-use IFR flight deck system available.

Lincoln, MA, May 19, 2009–– Avidyne Corporation, a leading provider of integrated flight deck and safety systems for general aviation aircraft, announced today that they have completed and delivered the first customer retrofit of their new Entegra Release 9 Integrated Flight Deck (IFD) system in a Cirrus SR22 aircraft.

“This Entegra Release 9 installation was started just days after we received our Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) approval and the time from aircraft arrival to customer delivery was under two weeks,” said Patrick Herguth, Avidyne’s Chief Operating Officer. “This installation validates the well thought out and time-saving benefits of our pre-fabricated retrofit wiring harness and our highly-detailed retrofit instructions, which were designed to reduce aircraft down time and overall installation costs. For a first-customer installation, it really could not have gone much smoother.”

“Entegra Release 9 is the culmination of years of research and development and we are delighted with the results, having created the easiest-to-use flight deck in all of aviation,” said Dan Schwinn, Avidyne’s President and CEO. “Entegra owners now have access to all the benefits of the Release 9 upgrade and they only have to be without their aircraft for a short amount of time in order to get it.”

“This program is a real credit to the efforts of our entire development team. Aircraft arrival to first flight was accomplished in one week, and we had customer delivery within two weeks,” said Rob Higby, Avidyne’s Vice President of Sales, Marketing and Customer Service. “With Entegra Release 9, we have an ‘Installation Made Simple’ solution to ensure an easy upgrade with predictable down time.”
