Duncan Aviation received an STC for the installation of a future air navigation system (Fans) 1/A+ solution for a Falcon 900B with Universal Avionics EFI-890R flight displays. The Fans approval supplements the Universal Avionics EFI-890R Falcon 900B avionics retrofit Duncan announced last fall, under which the company has already completed upgrades on two of the French trijets. The Fans 1/A+ certification will allow the aircraft to fly the most efficient path to Europe. It improves safety, reduces operating costs and flight time to Europe and gives the aircraft access to the most efficient routing for the current conditions.
