Max-Viz has announced the addition of Grant Sumpter to the sales team. Grant has 16 years of avionics experience including complex avionics installations, engineering, regulatory compliance and sales. He began his avionics career at a 3 rd party MRO working on commercial aircraft, and has been in corporate aviation for over 15 years. For the past 5 years, Grant has been a trusted advisor working as Avionics Sales Manager/Avionics Product Specialist working on major retrofits such as EVS systems, cockpit and cabin upgrades, broadband, and SATCOM systems.

Grant holds a FAA Airframe License as well as many avionics training certificates from various avionics OEMs. He is a graduate of Colorado AeroTech, received a certificate for Advanced Electronics and resides in the Boise area with his wife, Angie, of 18 years and two daughters.

Elliott Troutman, Max-Viz President, states, “The addition of Grant Sumpter to the Max-Viz family will further expand our sales into the MRO and fixed wing after-market segment. We have worked closely with Grant over 5 years, and know that his experience and technical skills are ideally suited to working with both end-user customers and major completion centers to bring the safety of EVS into an extremely important market segment within the aviation industry”.

Grant added, “It is a tremendous opportunity to begin work as an integral part of a company I have dealt with for the last 5 years. Having believed in EVS strongly as an Avionics Manager and Avionics Specialist, I am confident that I can carry that experience over into more focused EVS sales activities”.
