Flying Colours has secured a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for ADS-B OUT for Bombardier Challenger 300 airframes, from the US FAA.

The first Bombardier Challenger 300 was out fitted with the soon-to-be mandatory tracking system in November 2015, at its St. Louis facility. The STC will be submitted for validation by both Transport Canada and Europe’s EASA this year.

“Following the addition of the Global family to our Bombardier ASF status which has just been renewed for five years, and the winning of the Excellence award, it’s a real bonus to also achieve this STC.”

Sean Gillespie, VP Flying Colours said: “Following the addition of the Global family to our Bombardier ASF status which has just been renewed for five years, and the winning of the Excellence award, it’s a real bonus to also achieve this STC. We’ve invested in the technology to achieve the ADS-B OUT for the Challenger family first and now we are now exploring the options for other OEMs.”

The new Challenger 300 STC will be available for installation at all Flying Colours facilities.
