FAA approval of Geneva’s P148 and P149 console

Aug. 27, 2008, Kent, Wa. — Geneva Aviation, a member of the DART Helicopter Services family of companies, has received FAA approval for its P148 console which is compatible with newer AS350B2 aircraft, and the P149 for newer AS350B3’s, that use a Direct Battery Bus and a new EMERGENCY CUT-OFF switch on the instrument panel.

Geneva Aviation, a world class systems integrator and manufacturer of specialized equipment for the law enforcement, broadcast and private helicopter markets, is pleased to announce the addition of these two new consoles to its expanding product line. The P148 and P149 consoles are updated versions of the P122 console. Like the P122 console, these new consoles are built on the same framework and provide easy access to all circuit breakers and switches. Additionally, in place of the low reliability push buttons on the OEM console, all Geneva consoles utilize rugged MIL-STD toggle switches for reliable service.

The P148 and P149 consoles come complete with required switching functions of the relevant aircraft version, along with standard external lighting functions. Each is also equipped with several unassigned, pre-wired switches that may be used for installer-defined functions, such as additional lighting or power to instruments. The consoles can also be delivered customized to meet your mission specific requirements and there is also an option for night vision compatibility.
