CASA Orders Teledyne Controls' Mini-Flight Data Acquisition Unit (MFDAU)

LOS ANGELES - June 23, 2000 - Teledyne Controls, a business unit of Teledyne Electronics and Communications, announced today that Construcciones Aeronauticas, S.A. (CASA) has placed a $600 thousand order for Mini-Flight Data Acquisition Unit (MFDAU) systems. The MFDAU systems are for use on Spanish Air Force C-295 military aircraft. Delivery is scheduled to begin October 2000.

Teledyne Controls' MFDAU processes mandatory data acquisition, as required by the current FAA and European JAR-OP requirements.

When installed with the Aircraft Condition Monitoring System (ACMS) option, and Teledyne Control's Telelink™ datalink system, the MFDAU provides the means to transmit real-time critical aircraft-condition information to the ground for data analysis.
