Calabasas Firm to Supply Aircraft Guidance Switches
- Share via
Dynatech Microwave Technology, a Calabasas maker of electronic parts used in aerospace and defense, said it will supply Page Avjet, an Orlando, Fla., company, with a few hundred switches for systems that help aircraft avoid colliding into each other. It valued the contract at $80,000.
The federal government, hoping to prevent disasters similar to the 1986 collision of an Aeromexico jetliner and a small plane above Cerritos, has ordered jetliners to be equipped with collision-avoidance systems. Dynatech Microwave said Page Avjet plans to use the switches to retrofit a fleet of aircraft owned and operated by Southwest Airlines.
Dynatech Microwave is a subsidiary of Dynatech Corp., an electronic products concern based in Burlington, Mass.
