Retrofits Hit All-time High, Lift 2017 Avionics Sales
This year-over-year increase was solely due to a 20.1 percent uptick in retrofit avionics sales, offset by lower forward-fit sales.
Retrofit avionics sales hit an all-time high last year and boosted overall avionics sales, reversing two straight years of declines, according to the latest data from the Aircraft Electronics Association. Forward-fit avionics sales fell nearly $160 million from 2016, however. (Photo: Duncan Aviation)
