iFly 700 GPS™

SportairUSA, LC, the American distributor of sport aircraft and avionics, is now a dealer for Adventure Pilot’s iFly GPS™, the affordable 7” touchscreen moving map designed for private pilots.

“The iFly 700 GPS is an amazing new navigational aid,” said Bill Canino, President of SportairUSA. “We have watched the prices of avionics dive as the capabilities soar, and have hands-on experience with a wide range of very competent devices for sport and experimental aircraft. The iFly 700 fills a niche at the low price end of the spectrum, yet it is fully featured, easy to use and reliable.”

Canino noted that the iFly GPS will be standard equipment on the company’s Snap! light sport aerobat, and will be an available option on the Sting, Sirius, Savage Cub and SeaRey.

Wireless iMonitor EIS for iPad, installed in iCub

SportairUSA, LC, has completed installation and flight testing of the iMonitor EMS system by TruTrak Flight Systems in the new Savage iCub bush plane.  The system accepts engine performance information from engine sensors to an Engine Data Module (EDM) and then transmits each line of data through an on board wireless to any iPad or iPhone running the TruTrak iMonitor software.

Bill Canino, President of SportairUSA, was pleased with the performance of the iCub in all aspects of flight with the iMonitor program. “It is very easy to interpret and displays an amazing amount of data simultaneously to both pilots. Even our mechanics can read the engine information while standing outside of the aircraft.”

SportairUSA, LC, is now an FAA certificated 14 CFR 145 Repair Station serving the general aviation community in Arkansas and surrounding states from its facilities at the North Little Rock Municipal Airport (KORK). SportairUSA was awarded FAA certificate number 2SUR495B in August, 2010, just in time for the celebration of it’s 20th anniversary in the aviation field.

Ralph Murphy, for many years the Accountable Manager of Skytravel Avionics at Adams Field, has joined SportairUSA to head up the avionics department, where he will perform and supervise installations, upgrades and repairs of avionics, radios, instruments, autopilots and related airframe modifications.

“Whether it’s a business jet with a critical mission, a trainer that is in the air every day or a recreational aircraft operated for the pure joy of flying, we have the facilities, the staff and the experience to keep your avionics in tip-top shape,” said Bill Canino, President of SportairUSA. “SportairUSA is a dealer for all brands of avionics and autopilots, and offers the best prices in Arkansas for equipment, installation and service.”
