Tucson, AZ – Members of RTCA Special Committee 213 (SC-213), including Co-Chair and Universal Avionics’ Director of Systems Engineering, Patrick Krohn, were recognized recently in Washington, D.C. with Aviation Week’s prestigious Laureate Award for their work in Avionics and Systems.  Kohn was on hand to accept the award.

Universal Avionics is a leading manufacturer of innovative avionics systems for business jets, turboprop aircraft, transport aircraft, helicopters, regional and commercial airliners used by corporate, military and airline operators. The company offers advanced avionics as a retrofit and forward-fit solution for the largest diversification of aircraft types in the industry. As an organization, Universal Avionics is registered in the International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG) Online Aerospace Supplier Information System (OASIS) as compliant to the standards of the internationally accepted Quality Management System model, AS9100.

“The Aviation Week and Space Technology Laureate Award is an exceptional honor for RTCA SC-213,” said Krohn. “The committee has been an international collaborate effort of government and industry consensus requirements for current and further credit for SVS and EFVS systems for operations down to 300 RVR,” he added. “It is an honor to be a co-chairman of the RTCA SC-213 with Tim Etherington.”

SC-213, Enhanced Flight Vision Systems and Synthetic Vision Systems (EFVS/SVS) was established in December 2006. The group is currently developing Minimum Aviation System Performance Standards (MASPS)-level guidance for SVS, EFVS, Enhanced Vision Systems (EVS) and combined architectures to identify intended operations and systems architectures and enable the development of Minimum Operational Performance Standards (MOPS); and DO-315B, MASPS for EVS, SVS, Combined Vision Systems and EFVS.

Aviation Week’s Laureate Awards were created over 50 years ago to acknowledge the exceptional achievements of individuals and teams in aerospace, aviation and defense. The Laureate Awards are presented annually at a formal reception and awards ceremony.
