Attachment 11474
Dynon Avionics - the market leaders in experimental and light sport avionics - today unveiled SkyView HDX - The Premier SkyView Experience.
SkyView HDX is the new flagship SkyView system from Dynon, the market leaders in experimental and light sport avionics. SkyView HDX features improved displays, beautiful design, unrivaled control ergonomics, and an upgraded touch interface. SkyView HDX displays are compatible with all existing SkyView components and feature identical mounting profiles and electrical connections. Robert Hamilton, Dynon President, says “After spending thousands of hours sweating the details, homebuilders are rightfully proud of their aircraft. They deserve the premier glass panel: SkyView HDX.”

Clear, Vibrant Displays: SkyView HDX features brighter, higher-resolution HD touchscreen displays with wider viewing angles and improved anti-reflective properties for the sharpest picture ever.

Beautiful Design: SkyView HDX’s modern, elegant design features robust metal and glass construction that is worthy of being in your aircraft.

Unrivaled Control Ergonomics: SkyView HDX expands the SkyView philosophy of combining full physical controls with a touchscreen. SkyView HDX’s angled control panel allows for natural hand positioning, reducing fatigue. The wide, sculpted ledge allows you to anchor your hand for precise control in turbulence. New knobs have positive and crisp movement, and all controls are now fully-backlit for night flight.

Improved Touch Interface: SkyView HDX features icon-driven touch controls and simplified screen navigation for reduced workload. The new engine monitor instrument band along the bottom of the screen affords an ideal instrument scan. The expansive glass display features edge-to-edge touchability with no bezel in the way.

Capable and Compatible: SkyView HDX utilizes the same components and modules as existing SkyView systems. It also features the same mounting footprint and wiring as other SkyView displays, allowing drop-in upgrades for pilots already flying behind SkyView. SkyView HDX displays can also work side-by-side with SkyView Touch and SkyView Classic displays.
SkyView HDX will be available in both 7” and 10” touchscreen versions. The 10” SV-HDX1100 display will be priced at $4,490.00. The 7” SV-HDX800 will be priced at $3,190.00.

SkyView HDX is expected to be available Fall 2016.

$500 price decrease for SkyView Touch, Classic, AF-5000 Series systems

Effective Monday, July 25 2016, all SkyView Touch, SkyView Classic, and AF-5000 series displays now include navigation mapping capabilities. This equals a savings of $500 per system compared to previous pricing, where the mapping software was an additional separate $500 purchase. Michael Schofield, Dynon Marketing Manager says, “With the recent introduction of our entry-level SkyView SE system - which does not have mapping - and the unveiling of our new flagship SkyView HDX, we saw an opportunity to streamline the
purchase of SkyView systems to best serve our customers. Now every new SkyView and AF-5000 customer will save $500 on their system, and they no longer need to “opt in” to have world class navigation and mapping software in their aircraft.”

New Advanced Remote Audio Panel with Dimensional Sound and Bluetooth Music Streaming

Advanced Flight Systems announces a remote audio panel with class-leading features. Manufactured by PS Engineering for AFS, the new AF-PDA360EX-R features IntelliAudio® True Dimensional Sound to let you hear multiple radios simultaneously - spatially separated in your headset.
