In addition to our new SkyView HDX system, we have updates to our products across the SkyView and AF-5000 series lines:
- $500 Price Reduction on SkyView Touch, SkyView Classic, and AF-5000 Series: Mapping Now Included
- New Advanced Remote Audio Panel with Dimensional Sound and Bluetooth Music Streaming
- Upcoming SkyView v15 Software Preview
- Advanced Flight Systems AF-5000 Series Graphics Updates
$500 price decrease for SkyView Touch, Classic, AF-5000 Series systems
Effective Monday, July 25 2016, all SkyView Touch, SkyView Classic, and AF-5000 series displays now include navigation mapping capabilities. This equals a savings of $500 per system compared to previous pricing, where the mapping software was an additional separate $500 purchase. Michael Schofield, Dynon Marketing Manager says, “With the recent introduction of our entry-level SkyView SE system - which does not have mapping - and the unveiling of our new flagship SkyView HDX, we saw an opportunity to streamline the purchase of SkyView systems to best serve our customers. Now every new SkyView and AF-5000 customer will save $500 on their system, and they no longer need to “opt in” to have world class navigation and mapping software in their aircraft.”
