Esterline, global leader in aerospace technologies, will showcase its latest aftermarket solutions for cockpit controls at MRO Americas in Orlando, Fla., April 25-27, Booth 1800. Featured among several of its brands will be a recently released selection of Korry 389 5/8-inch LED switches configured as annunciators for ADS-B global positioning system (GPS) transceivers. They will be available for fast delivery as part of the Korry Quick Switch program.
These quick-ship Korry ADS-B annunciators will be of particular interest to aircraft operators facing the ADS-B Out deadline of January 2020 mandated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Korry 389 switches are the OEM switch solution for most aerospace platforms. Under the FAA rule, ADS-B Out will be required for aircraft operating in Class A, B and C airspace, in certain Class E airspace at or above 10,000 feet and around busy airports identified in 14 CFR part 91, Appendix D.
Specific benefits of the Korry ADS-B annunciators include:
In addition, the Esterline MRO Americas booth will feature other aviation aftermarket solutions, including Korry switching products, Mason controls such as sticks and cursor controllers, and Janco rotary control products.
Esterline was the first manufacturer to introduce sunlight-readable LED switches with a patented dimming process, creating a much more robust product for the marketplace by eliminating the need for repairs.
