LINCOLN, NEB. Duncan Aviation ODA has just issued the first Supplemental Type Certificate for the installation of WAAS/LPV in the Learjet 31A aircraft. This solution consists of a single UNS-1Ew installation and a monitor unit for LPV approach capability which provides ILS-like guidance down to near CAT I ILS minimums (as low as 200 feet with 1/2 mile visibility).

In addition to the Learjet 31A, Duncan Aviation also holds STCs for WAAS/LPV upgrades on the Learjet 45 and Challenger 600 aircraft. Duncan Aviation is currently pursuing WAAS/LPV STC certifications on the Honeywell NZ-2000 FMS equipped Challenger 601-3A/R and Falcon 900.
