Of the 454 STCs Duncan Aviation holds, 37 are for FAA-approved ADS-B solutions, which allows the company to perform upgrades on more than 100 aircraft models. In addition, Duncan Aviation is the only Rockwell Collins-authorized facility that can perform repairs and upgrades to the TDR-94 and TDR-94D transponders required to comply with the ADS-B mandate. Duncan Aviation also holds or has access to FANS solutions for 24 aircraft models. As needed, Duncan Aviation plans to seek foreign validations for the NextGen STC solutions the company holds. Duncan Aviation's Organization Designation Authorization (ODA) is always busy on projects for our customers and for companies that have hired our experienced Engineers for outside engineering services.
