A year ago, in April 2020, Scott Ashton—a pilot and flight instructor—closed the deal on purchasing Aerox Aviation Oxygen Systems, and made good on a belief that he holds close to his heart: that pilots should use oxygen at much lower altitudes and for longer periods than is currently required by FAA minimums. At the 2021 Sun ‘n Fun Aerospace Expo, Ashton celebrated the anniversary of his acquisition of the company, with his wife Sara—who serves as company CFO. Ashton also demonstrated the latest product in the company’s line of aviator’s oxygen gear, the PrO2 Plus.
