Innov8 Cabin Solutions received STC certification for installation of the CabinFlex (CFlex) Simplicity USB charger in a Falcon 900B. West Star Aviation performed the retrofit in Alton, Ill. Innov8’s Simplicity retrofit line replaces legacy cabin monitors and IFE systems, allowing use of personal electronic devices aboard business jets.

“We’re de-integrating the cabin entertainment from management to enable customers to keep up with ever-changing personal electronics and use them in their aircraft efficiently, and without the big upgrade costs associated with current or available integrated systems,” said Scott Taylor, business development leader at the Kirkland, Wash.-based company. He cited “aging Audio International, Baker, PacSys and C-Series systems” as prime candidates for replacement. More charger installations are under way. Minimal woodwork is required when replacing existing side-ledge installed monitors or when installing CFlex components in a new location, he said.
