In relation to NE (New) parts, many OEMs change their prices and availability without any notice to dealers or the industry. Therefore, through the REQUEST or RFQ indication, we ask that customers contact us for the most accurate price and availability.

In relation to SV & OH parts, the used parts aftermarket in the aviation industry is not an infinite supply. It is a dynamic, constantly changing market that is significantly affected by and susceptible to highs and lows in supply and demand. Therefore, although we attempt to, at times, we are unable to predict the exact moment when an item may be available. Once again, through the REQUEST or RFQ indication on our website, we ask that customers contact us for the most current and accurate price and availability.

Bendix /King recently announced a GPS/WAAS Display upgrade for the EFIS-40 &
EFIS-50 systems on the TBM 700 & PC-12 aircraft. The Symbol Generator
Software (SW) Modification (MOD) 15/01 will enable the EFIS 40/50 system to
display the correct WAAS vertical deviation when GPS is selected as the
navigation source and connected to a WAAS enabled GPS receiver via an ARINC
429 interface. This allows the KFC-325 autopilot to remain coupled to the
EFIS system display when flying an LPV.

The upgrade also allows autopilot enabled output and display of lateral
deviations and vertical guidance while on other WAAS GPS approaches.

Separate annunciations may be required to support WAAS, depending on the GPS
installation and supporting STC. The upgrade is applicable to EFIS 40/50 SG
465 Symbol Generators on the TBM 700 and PC-12 aircraft having Part Numbers
066-04021-1108 throug h -1114. The applicable SG 465 part numbers will be
converted to P/N: 066-04021-1115.

Upgrade list price: $5,000. Southeast Aerospace will also be offering
upgrade exchanges for non-WAAS units. Please
Contact SEA for details on exchanges.

At this time, the Garmin 400W/500W series WAAS units are approved for interface to the following EFIS systems:

Honeywell EFIS 40/50 with the SG 465 symbol generator with the following limitation: No vertical guidance is provided for GPS approaches.

Sandel SN3308 with the following limitation: GPS lateral and vertical guidance is provided using the analog interface.

Sandel SN3500 with the following limitation: Vertical guidance is provided for GPS approaches.

This is specified in the latest Garmin 400W series installation manual P/N 190-00356-02 Rev. C, dated April 2007.

Many avionics systems require a configuration or setup process. This process is required to interface certain avionics systems to other systems in the aircraft that will be inputting or outputting information to and from these systems. Some examples of systems that require a configuration or setup process include:

Autopilot
EFIS
GPS
EGPWS
EHSI
RADAR
TAWS
TCAS


In addition, most newer technology or solid state systems require configuration via computer interface of some type. A qualified avionics technician should always refer to the appropriate manufacturer's installation manual for complete information and instructions.

The SG-465 EFIS symbol generator needs to be configured for the equipment specific to the installation. This is done by using a menu driven program on the display unit. The resulting configuration is stored both in the symbol generator and in a configuration module attached to the mounting rack. The configuration module remains a part of the aircraft installation and is used to transfer the configuration to replacement symbol generators. Whenever the configuration stored in the configuration module and the configuration stored in the symbol generator differ, the operator is asked to choose which one to use.

Please refer to Page 4-330 (section 4.10.2.E.) of the EFS-40/50 Installation manual for detailed instructions detailed on proper symbol generator configuration.

4.1.1.A. Make sure all units are connected properly. Connect an auxiliary power unit (APU) to the aircraft.

4.1.1.B. Turn aircraft power, avionics power and inverters on. Verify the display unit becomes lighted within 30 seconds and all colors, red in particular, are displayed. The system will do an automatic self test and will display a SELF TEST PASS message. A yellow CHECK CONFIG message may appear indicating the system requires configuration programming.

To change the configuration upon the "CHECK CONFIG" message, select the copy mode appropriate by moving the hand to the appropriate item. Push Config Switch through the Front of the Symbol Generator, then NEXT MENU. You Should get a Copy Complete Message when the Operation is Complete. To change a single item in a configuration page through the equipment or operating Menus until the item requiring change is found. Enter that menu page and push the switch through the front of the Symbol Generator. This will allow you to move the hand to the line you are changing the configuration to. Push the Next Menu button to select the item you moved the hand to. The configuration menu may then be exited.

Negotiating the exchange price of a unit only limits the allowable repair cap for the core unit. Southeast Aerospace's exchange transactions are based on the return of economically repairable core unit. Once the core is received and evaluated, the core repair cost incurred by SEA cannot exceed 75% of the original exchange price. That is, it cannot cost SEA more than 75% of the original OH/SV exchange price collected from the customer. Therefore, when and if an SEA exchange price is discounted, there is a risk that additional charges may be assessed once the core is returned and evaluated.

"As Removed" or condition "AR" parts are in the same condition as they were removed from an aircraft. The reasons for removal include aircraft upgrades, teardowns, or certain types of incidents. In most cases, AR parts have not been inspected or tested. They do not include airworthiness certification such as FAA Form 8130 or EASA Form 1. Southeast Aerospace encourages avionics in this condition to be tested and recertified before using in an aircraft.
