LAS VEGAS, Nev., Oct. 12, 2004 — Commuter Air Technology (Booth 11725)
will begin taking orders for two new King Air enhancement products at the National
Business Aviation Association (NBAA) Annual Meeting and Convention, Oct. 12–14.
Both products – the Classic 100 Cargo Pod and the CATPASS Plus 600 –
are designed to increase the productivity and efficiency of King Air aircraft.
The Classic 100 is a new “no frills” 60-cubic foot cargo pod that
is an excellent alternative to value-priced pods offering just 40 cubic feet
of space, according to Sam L. Jantzen, Jr., vice president of sales and marketing
for the company. The Classic 100 is so named because it weighs just 100 pounds,
yet carries a useful load of 500 pounds.
The CATPASS Plus 600 is a package of two enhancements (Lower Wing Spar Strap
Reinforcement and Zero Fuel Weight Increase) that enables operators to carry
600 pounds more. “On a typical King Air flight, this increased capacity
would translate into a passenger in every seat and their baggage, too,”
Jantzen said. “This is productivity at its best.”
Both products were developed to answer the needs of the marketplace. Commuter
Air Technology is a product development driven company that provides quality
aircraft enhancements for a full range of King Air products. Founded in 1985,
the company will celebrate its 20th anniversary next year.
The company is especially well known for developing the CATPASS 250, an exclusive
aircraft available only from Commuter Air Technology. Through an exclusive Federal
Aviation Administration Supplemental Type Certificate, a King Air 200 equipped
with a special package of 18 performance and productivity enhancements installed
by Commuter Air Technology, is considered a CATPASS 250.
The enhancements enable aircraft to do more while operating more effectively
and efficiently.
