TECHNICAL ABSTRACT (LIMIT 200 WORDS) TECHNICAL ABSTRACT (LIMIT 200 WORDS) The Phase I research has positive value for NASA?s SATS mission as well as for the creation of near-term GA commercial product opportunities (2005). While researching the Phase I CCT transfer process a modular cabin and interior design partnership was created with RCO engineering. This automotive style cabin technology had cost and comfort that was very attractive and Eclipse Aviation engaged RCO for a prototype development and is negotiating a production selection. Therefore the successful commercial deployment of a part of the technology developed in this SBIR is possible during Phase II when Eclipse reaches production in 2004. Phase III success will be achieved with the production certification of a complete cabin module that has integrated CCTs. Munro & Assoc. will partner with appropriate GA OEMs and retrofitters to self fund a certification effort in parallel with the Phase II R&D. New GA products will be spawned from the commercial success of the CCT product.
POTENTIAL COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS Commercial applications include full cockpit and cabin installations in new as well as the 100,000 plus travel active existing small airplanes in the country. Spin offs include software applications for custom designs.
