Butler Avionics has received Mexican Direccion General de Aeronautica Civil (DGAC) approval of its ADS-B STC for a range of out-of-production Learjet models, the Olathe, Kansas-based company announced on June 19. The FAA-approved STC also covers the ADS-B Out equipment mandate in Mexico that takes effect January 1, 2020.
Under DGAC’s approval, Butler’s ADS-B Out solution is available for Learjet models 31, 31A, 35, 35A, 36, 36A, and 60&nbsp;that have TCAS II installed. Its solution includes two Garmin GTX 3000 transponders, the GDL 88 (Dual Band UAT/1090 Receiver with WAAS GPS Sensor) and the Flight Stream 210 Bluetooth Transmitter. Butler’s modification easily interfaces with existing TCAS II equipment and offers access to ADS-B In information on a portable electronic device such as a tablet or iPad, according to the company.
“With the significant number of Learjets in Mexico, it is important to provide these reasonably&nbsp;priced ADS-B solutions,” Butler director of avionics Guy Morris said.&nbsp;
