Aspen Avionics has announced a partnership with engine instrumentation manufacturer Electronics International to integrate engine instruments into Aspen displays. This development aligns with Aspen’s objective of enabling customers to continually update their displays to enhance functionality.

The Aspen Evolution primary flight display, introduced two decades ago, offered a novel method for upgrading older instrument panels. The glass display fits into and over two common 3.25-inch instrument holes, eliminating the need for extensive modifications while providing aircraft owners with the benefits of a glass cockpit at a relatively reasonable price.

“We have kept with the hardware that can be used and reused,” said Aspen president and CEO John Uczekaj. “We haven’t succumbed to the bright shiny object avionics world where you’re constantly changing platforms and forcing the customer to swap out for new hardware. We will continue to stay true to our roots, which is our Aspen platform.”

Uczekaj noted that adding engine instruments is a logical progression in modern avionics developments. Initially, upgrades focused on glass attitude indicators and horizontal situation indicators, followed by next-generation GPS navigators and digital autopilots.

“What we’re seeing now is a big push for engine instruments,” he said. “Pilots are getting much more sophisticated. The electronics that are coming into their aircraft [are] more sophisticated. They want more data and they want to be able to do more things.”

To incorporate engine instruments into the Aspen displays, Electronics International will supply probes and the EDC-33P engine data converter box that transmits information to the Aspen displays. This upgrade allows buyers to replace existing RPM, manifold pressure, EGT/CHT, fuel level, oil temperature and pressure, volt/amp, fuel low, fuel pressure, and TIT gauges.

Aspen is showcasing a beta version of this engine instrumentation at its EAA AirVenture booth and anticipates receiving FAA certification for the upgrade by mid-2025. Only a software upgrade is necessary for the Aspen Evolution MFD500 Max and MFD1000 Max multifunction displays to exhibit these engine instruments.

Additionally at EAA AirVenture, Uczekaj announced an extension of Aspen's factory warranty from two years to three years for Evolution Max and E5 displays. This includes unlimited transferable coverage encompassing all system components regardless of hours accumulated.

In celebration of its 20th anniversary through July 31st, Aspen is offering discounts ranging from 20% to 30% on Evolution displays. “It’s a big vote of confidence in the reliability of our platform and for keeping the cost of flying down because things happen,” Uczekaj stated.
