Blackhawk Aerospace took the opportunity to celebrate the remarkable milestone of having earned their 30th Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) at this year’s Oshkosh Airventure.

BLACKHAWK STC’S HAVE achieved significant market success across Africa where the performance enhancements they bring to established products such as the King Air range have been much valued.

“This STC represents the pinnacle of achievement for Blackhawk raising the bar of performance and value standards to the highest levels yet,” said Jim Allmon, Blackhawk’s President & CEO. “I’m incredibly proud of our team and their ability to produce 30 STCs in our 22 years. Blackhawk’s future is bright, and we’re excited to expand upon our current STC base with new and exciting programs for operators.”

Other recent approvals include the addition of European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and British Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) certifications for the True Blue Power TB44 Lithium Ion battery on the King Air 350 series.

“We continue to expand our global outreach to ensure that the entire market has access to the latest and greatest technology available,” said Allmon. “The TB44 is a great example of the cutting-edge technology that Blackhawk supports in addition to our engine performance upgrades. Together, the battery-to-engine combination provides operators and unmatched advantage in power, safety, life, and efficiency.”
