Building on the pioneering STC
work it did with EAA, Dynon is
taking the next step by earning STCs
for the installation of its touch-screen
SkyView HDX system. The FAA
signed off on its approved model list
STC, which starts with Cessna 172
Skyhawks, in March 2018.
It is Dynon's first STC, and it
represents a giant step forward in the
market because the SkyView HDX
is a truly integrated avionics system
that replaces the vast majority of
an airplane's steam gauge legacy,
including the vacuum pump. The
STC approval does not restrict the
aircraft's operational use and allows
for both VFR and IFR flight.
The SkyView system provides
primary flight instruments, including
synthetic vision and angle of attack.
With it comes complete engine
monitoring with cylinder head and
exhaust gas temps, fuel flow and
computer with lean assist. The STC
also covers the SkyView's built-in
two-axis autopilot, which includes
IFR approach capability when
connected to a compatible GPS/
WAAS navigator.
The approved Dynon install also
includes a Mode S transponder
with ADS-B Out. The system also
displays ADS-B In's traffic and
flight information services, as well
as electronic flight bag features
including navigation, mapping and
flight planning. The instrument that
opened the door, the EFIS-D10A is
the SkyView's backup.
Instead of the one-size-fits-all
approach of the TSO, the STC process
is aircraft specific, said Michael
Schofield, Dynon's director of
marketing. "The structural difference
is that we're building what are
approvable using methods acceptable
to the FAA. What we're doing is not
particularly unique; it might just be a
little less complicated."

Complicated is relative. STC'ing
the D10 was easier because the
parties involved were looking at
just one capability - attitude. The
SkyView was multifaceted because
they had to examine each capability
and its contribution to the failure
scenarios of the entire airplane as a
system.
There are three aspects to the
STC process, Schofield explained.
"The STC gives you design and
installation approval, and the PMA
is the manufacturing approval"
of the equipment that STC will
install. Dynon was working
through the final steps of the parts
manufacturing approval process,
Schofield said in March.
The PMA'd SkyView will have
different part numbers and markings
than its noncertified sibling, but
the "PMA unit will not have any
magic circuit boards," Schofield
said. It will, however, have the same
price as the system sold to amateur

builders of experimental aircraft. To
install the certified SkyView system,
owners of Part 23 airplanes must
visit one of three installation centers
in Washington, Texas or Alaska.
With the STC for the 172 in-hand,
Schofield noted, Dynon's next big
steps are to finish a similar AML
STC that starts with the Beech
Baron, which is even more involved.
And while the company is building
the approved model lists for single
and multiengine airplanes, it will
be building a wider installation
network.
The STC products now finding
their way into Part 23 aircraft are
just the start. Dynon's path is clear,
with its AML STCs that will install
the integrated SkyView system
in legacy single and multiengine
Part 23 aircraft. Garmin was more
circumspect; all Stone would say
regarding new products in its lineup
of STC installations was, "Stay
tuned. There's more to come." q
