DAC International Inc. (DAC), a subsidiary of Aero Precision Holdings LP, announced that it has received a supplemental type certificate (STC) for the Esterline CMA-6800 display for the Sikorsky S-76B and S-76C helicopters. The STC also includes the S-76C+ and S-76C++ models.
“The product provides many benefits as a form fit function replacement for the Honeywell ED-800 product line,” said DAC International’s president Cisco Hernandez. “We believe the CMA-6800 offers our customers a simple replacement solution for the aging ED-800’s on many of the S-76 platforms worldwide. This will save substantial weight, thus reducing operating costs and further extending the life of their existing cockpits.”
The CMA-6800 electronic display system was designed to replace the aging Honeywell ED-800 cathode ray tube displays.
DAC expects to have European Aviation Safety Agency and National Civil Aviation Agency of Brazil approvals very shortly.
