I was just browsing the Chelton website, and searched for an STC for commanders. There’s a long list of twin commanders that they claim an STC for.

 

 I seem to recall some controversy recently about this not being available. Something about the owners of the company being killed. (?)

 

 Does anyone know differently? Essentially:

 

     Are there any glass cockpits that can be installed into a twin-commander and, if so, what are they?

Steve-

  

 The issue that you are recalling is mine.  Let's see  if I cannot fill you in a bit here:

  

 Chelton is a VERY large company with many different  divisions.  Their Chelton Aviation Corporation division produced a new type  of digital autopilot- and it was this division that lost the primary principles  an an airplane accident approximately a year ago.  This division was  absorbed by Wulfsberg (another Chelton company) and they have effectively ceased  development and sales of this digital autopilot.

  

 Chelton Flight Systems is the manufacturer of the displays  you are looking at- and they are alive, healthy and in  business!

  

 We are installing a set of Chelton EFIS displays on our  685- and they are absolutely fantastic!  The folks at Chelton Flight  Systems are very customer oriented, very friendly and constantly improving their  product- I cannot recommend them highly enough.

  

 When it was obvious that our 90% completed autopilot  installation was not going to be completed- Chelton Flight Systems became a  strong advocate our our behalf to find a workable solution for everyone  involved.  In the end, Wulfsberg reimbursed us for all work accomplished in  the effort to replace the autopilot on the airplane- and they were very helpful  in assisting us with finding an alternate solution.

  

 If you have any questions about the Chelton displays- let  me know.  Be glad to help out!

Nick,Do you have a photo of your panel?

A friend has a 690A and is very interested in it.

You can send it to Nico or send it to me off line.

Thanks,

Tylor Hall
