Lexavia Expects First EVS Approval Soon

Lexavia Integrated Systems expected to receive its first supplemental type certificate (STC) for an enhanced vision system (EVS) on the Eurocopter AS355 around the end of last year. Other certifications are expected to follow soon thereafter, including fixed-wing applications such as jets and turboprops, according to Chuck Crompton, director of business development. These will include King Airs, PC-12s, Learjets and Citations. The first STC covers installation of Lexavia’s fixed field-of-view LFS 3000 system, mounted on a bracket that wraps around the helicopter’s skid-tube.
