Fargo Jet Center (FJC) recently completed Garmin TXi touchscreen glass upgrades on the first of three Pilatus PC-12s operated by the Northeast Montana Stat Air Ambulance Cooperative.&nbsp;By year-end,&nbsp;Fargo Jet will provide the same avionics upgrades for two more of the operator's PC-12s.
“Our relationship with FJC dates back more than a decade when we were looking for an authorized Pilatus service center to support our first PC-12. Since then, we have added two more aircraft to our fleet, with FJC continuing to support our routine maintenance, as well as provide dedicated air medical interior modifications and other minor installs and upgrades,” said&nbsp;Russ Dahl, director of operations for the air ambulance provider. “FJC has proven itself as a reputable and professional operation, which made them an easy choice when looking for a solution for our avionics needs.”
“Seeing the quality workmanship and attention to detail our team delivered on this first aircraft is rewarding and a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team,” Fargo Jet Center&nbsp;avionics lead Drew Stiles said. “Collaborating with the Northeast Montana Stat Air Ambulance Cooperative team to develop a custom solution tailored to better serve its operation has proven to be a win for all involved.”

New developments and products in avionics, specifically about aircraft electronics in the cockpit.
