"They [Honeywell Bendix/King] are going to rely on our expertise in the retrofit market and in light and medium GA," said Aspen Avionics President John Uczekaj.
The KSN 770 was announced with great fanfare in 2007 and Honeywell Bendix/King then expected FAA certification of the WAAS-enabled, GPS/Comm in 2008. But a long series of delays has kept the product from coming to market.
Aspen and Honeywell Bendix/King will jointly market the product once it is approved by the FAA. The product is expected to be available by the end of the year.
