Elliott Aviation began retrofitting King Air’s in 2007, starting with the C90 and has installed systems in King Air C90, 200/B20 and 300/350. They have completed more G1000 King Air retrofits than all other dealers in the world combined.
In 2002, Elliott Aviation completed an STC with a Universal EFI-550 system in this same aircraft to give it an updated TAWS system.
“With upcoming ADS-B mandates, we were faced with making a decision to put a lot of money just to update our current avionics, or to completely upgrade our system.”
Bert Bollar, chief pilot of Teton Aviation said: “With upcoming ADS-B mandates, we were faced with making a decision to put a lot of money just to update our current avionics, or to completely upgrade our system.”
“It just made sense cost wise and weight wise to go with the G1000. The system not only saves a lot of weight and meets ADS-B mandates, but it comes with the latest autopilot as well,” added Bollar.
“Teton Aviation has been a long-time customer and partner of Elliott Aviation. We are excited to offer them the best available avionics system for their aircraft.”
Conrad Theisen, director of Avionics Sales for Elliott Aviation said: “Teton Aviation has been a long-time customer and partner of Elliott Aviation. We are excited to offer them the best available avionics system for their aircraft.”
