Flight Data Systems and Canada West Avionics have secured a Part 25 approved model list supplemental type certificate (AML-STC) for the installation of the Sentry cockpit voice recorder (CVR) with recorder independent power supply (RIPS) in various aircraft models.
The AML-STC covers more than 75 airline and business aircraft, including models from Airbus, Boeing, Embraer, and Gulfstream. According to Flight Data Systems, “The certified Sentry CVR is the smallest, lightest, and lowest-power-consuming ED-112A recorder available today, with various TSO certifications.” The AML-STC also meets the upcoming Canadian CVR mandate for RIPS.
“The completion of the Part 25 AML-STC for the Sentry CVR with RIPS underscores the strength of our partnership,” said Shane LaPlante, vice president of sales and marketing at Flight Data Systems. “The Sentry’s reliability, functionality, and ease of installation make it the preferred choice for operators seeking compliant solutions for their fleets. Together, we empower Canadian operators to meet regulatory requirements and enhance safety standards.”
