OU
Aviation updates fleet
with thirteen new Piper aircraft!
Thirteen
new Piper Warrior III airplanes were purchased
(February 2005) for the OU
Aviation Department. The planes replace its almost 30-year-old
fleet.
The
new single-engine planes feature
cutting-edge technology, such
as Global Positioning Systems,
that students need to learn
to use to be competitive in
the aviation industry. Two
of the planes will utilize
the Avidyne Entegra Integrated
Flight Deck. These “glass
cockpit” configurations
feature flight instruments
and gauges on two large, television-like
screens. |
