Stop Safer. Stop Shorter. Save Money.
Advent Aircraft Systems' FAA certified, digital/GPS eABS™ brings full anti-skid capability to any aircraft with a manual braking system in development, in production, or in service.
Get the improved safety, stopping performance and directional control plus haptic feedback offered by this affordable, lightweight, easy-to-install anti-skid braking system. Avoid risk to aircraft and the many direct and indirect costs that can be caused by unexpected tire damage.
The Advent Advantage
System Performance Better directional control and reduced stopping distance on runways contaminated with debris, water, ice and snow.
Tire Protection Eliminates flat-spotted and blown tires during aggressive stopping on dry or contaminated runways.
Tactile Feedback During eABS operation, the brake pedal pushes back, annunciating its operation, aiding the pilot in knowing the braking limits of the airplane.
Alternative to reverse thrust Use of eABS eliminates risk of engine FOD and prop erosion in contaminated runway conditions.
Touchdown Protection Wheel speed must spin up to at least 85% of aircraft speed before brakes will operate.
Low-Speed Cut-out The system will not operate, in anti-skid mode, when aircraft speed is below 15 knots.
Advent eABS™ anti-skid braking systems are available for the King Air B200/B300 series, PC-12 series, Eclipse 500 and T-6 Texan II.
Breakthrough technology from Advent enables anti-skid brake control never before available for the Beechcraft King Air, Pilatus PC-12, Eclipse 500/550 and Textron T-6 Texan II. No practical ABS technology existed for these aircraft when they were first designed and certified. Now it does (see Advent FAA STC SA03275CH). Advent's FAA STC has been accepted by airworthiness authorities in Canada, Europe, Brazil, India, Australia and New Zealand.
