The continued advances in technology has resulted in the development of new cockpit and cabin avionics capabilities. The addition of many of the cockpit capabilities are more than ever finding themselves among both domestic and international regulatory requirements. TCAS, GPS, RVSM, GPWS and TAWS are amongst the latest generation of operational and safety avionics systems that have been or are being mandated. Richmor Aviation takes a proactive approach by performing thorough cost and safety analysis of new regulations well in advance of the implementation phase of the requirement. Cost-benefit and safety comparisons enable large amounts of information of products introduced by many original equipment manufacturers (OEM) to be summarized in an efficient manner. Data which is not or cannot be considered by other less experienced or smaller organizations include:

Upcoming inspection or refurbishment events that may enable the installation to be performed in a more timely and cost-effective manner.

Ramifications of delaying the installation to the implementation deadline including loss of operation and additional downtime.

An analysis as to whether a multi-aircraft, multi-level installation program can be developed with the OEM and/or installation facility thus maximizing the potential of saving in both downtime and cost throughout a fleet of aircraft regardless of the equipment which is needed.
