IDGA: Extending Service Life of Aging Aircraft

Defense News Updates ~ NEW YORK-- January 21, 2010, (BUSINESS WIRE)--IDGA’s Cockpit Avionics Summit is the premier military avionics conference in the United States. As the continually aging aircraft fleet is tasked at the highest levels in history, the DoD has outlined road-maps to extend their service life and utility with technological avionics improvements across the board. “At the same time, the growing needs of a constantly changing war environment must be addressed while increased congestion and safety concerns require attention as well,” says Keith Johnson, General Manager of IDGA and 12 year veteran aviator of the US Air Force.
This year’s Cockpit Avionics Summit will detail current efforts and developments in the fields of NextGen requirements and how the DoD will meet the timeline, interoperability, and plans to adapt in an uncertain future. In today’s complex and rapidly changing battle environment, aircraft operators are becoming increasingly inundated with never-before seen challenges necessary for mission success and ultimately safety.
IDGA’s Cockpit Avionics Summit will be held February 9 -11, 2010 at Hilton Old Town Alexandria in Alexandria, VA.
