Revue Thommen, the Swiss avionics manufacturer (Booth No. 712), has announced that its AD32 air data display with autopilot alerter has been integrated into an RVSM package available for European-registered Hawker Beechcraft King Air twin turboprops. The European Aviation Safety Agency issued an STC for the package to Elliott Aviation of the U.S. for installation in King Air B200s, B300s and B350s equipped with certain Rockwell Collins, Bendix/King and Honeywell autopilots. The equipment will be delivered as a complete kit for installation in European-operated aircraft.

Elliott originally received Federal Aviation Administration certification for the retrofit for installation in U.S.-registered aircraft. AeroMech of Seattle, Washington, also offers a Thommen-equipped RVSM kit for the King Air 300/350 series.
