Visitors to Dynon’s AirVenture booth last year asked the company to find an economical method to install SkyView HDX avionics in a certified airplane. With roots in light sport and Experimental aircraft, Dynon products have already been installed in over 20,000 aircraft, usually ones created by amateur builders. Dynon yesterday announced that a soon-to-be-approved supplemental type certificate will allow owners to add its Skyview avionics system to a variety of certified airplanes. The company said it expects to continuously expand the approved model list (AML) to a broad range of type certified aircraft.
