EMPOWER. In the 2000s, Astronics
AES became a member of the Aircraft
Electronics Association, moved to a
larger building in Redmond and introduced COREPOWER, a complete aircraft power generation and distribution
system. In 2013, its continued success
in the business aviation, commercial
and military markets led the company
to relocate to its current location in
Kirkland, Wash.
Several years ago, Astronics AES
anticipated that passenger interest in
portable electronic devices would lead
to a greater demand for cabin power in
business aviation, so it began developing new aftermarket versions of its
EMPOWER ISPS that could be sold
and installed by completion centers
and avionics shops. Becoming more
active in the AEA at the national and
regional levels, the company also began
expanding its dealer network and has
now established profitable partnerships
with many of AEA's most forwardlooking member facilities. For 2014
and beyond, Astronics AES plans to
help AEA member shops continue to
generate revenue through the sales and
installation of its current and forthcoming aviation products.

Dallas Avionics' first began
exhibiting in April 1974, at the AEA
International Convention and Trade
Show in Chicago, Ill. However, the
Davis' involvement in the AEA goes
back to the mid-1960s.
Dallas Avionics hired its first fulltime employees in early 1974, one
of whom still works for the company. The Davis' daughter and son,
Sally and Scott, began working full
time in 1977 and 1981, respectively,
although both Sally and Scott began
making the Dallas Avionics catalogs, for 25 cent each, shortly after
it opened.
In 1978, Dallas Avionics added
Cal Labs, an in-house facility (yet a
separate business) that calibrates all
types of test equipment plus torque
pressure and tension and, ultimately,

RVSM standard type pitot-static test
gear. Today, Cal Labs employs 10
people, all tops in their field.
In 1988, Radio Masters was
added as an in-house repair shop
servicing NAT, Technisonic, KGS
and Laserdyne monitors and Laser
rangefinders. Today, Radio Masters
employs four technicians with a
combined experience of more than
140 years. Both of these businesses
were part of an overall business
plan to bring an enhanced level of
support for all Dallas Avionics products.
Today, Dallas Avionics employs
28 people in six states. It believes
it has the best crew one could put

Johnny and Donna Davis established Dallas Avionics Inc. as a
Texas-based wholesale distributor
of aircraft electronics, avionics test

equipment and installation supplies
in November 1973. In November
2013, Dallas Avionics proudly celebrated its 40th anniversary.
The first major line of products
that Dallas Avionics distributed
was Narco Avionics, and IFR followed shortly after. Other lines have
included Foster Airdata, Comant
Antennas, Vega Radar Transponders,
David Clark, Wire and Coax.
