MRO provider Elliott Aviation has completed its first Collins Pro Line Fusion avionics upgrade on a Cessna Citation CJ2+ at its Moline, Illinois facility. As a result of the project, which took 21 working days, the company will quote a four-week downtime for the installations. “The avionics team at Elliott Aviation was able to leverage their Collins experience to accomplish the short downtime,” said Elliott’s avionics sales manager&nbsp;Bill Forbes.

 


Pro Line Fusion offers reduced pilot workload using an integrated flight management system and improved situational awareness through 14.1-inch touchscreen LCD displays with interactive maps that provide information such as high-resolution topography and weather. Other features include controller pilot datalink communications and NextGen compatibility.

 


Elliott also offers the Fusion upgrade for the CJ1+ and CJ3. Besides Moline, Elliott operates MRO facilities in Des Moines, Iowa; Minneapolis; and Atlanta. The company estimates it completes 40 to&nbsp;50 full-panel retrofits each year.
