The spokesman also explained that there is a need for reliable mechanical stand-by instruments to complement electronic instruments subject to failure under external influences such as those encountered by aircraft on low-level missions and helicopters on surveillance, search-and-rescue or medical evacuation duty. There are service bulletins for installation of Revue Thommen instruments on the Hawker 800 and Challenger 601/604, and the company has an STC to retrofit all Learjet 31, 35, 45 and 60 models with reliable pneumatic stand-by instruments. Revue Thommen instruments are also standard for Eurocopter, AgustaWestland and, recently, for Bell Textron IFR-equipped helicopters. The company is a supplier for new stand-by instruments for the Hawker line of business jets, for Bombardier Learjet and Challenger models, as well as the Gulfstream G200 and the Sino Swearingen SJ30-2.

Companies such as Bendix/King, Kollsman/IDC, Smiths and Sextant have no replacements available for some of their old instruments and cost of overhaul is close to that of new STC Revue Thommen replacements. This demand is changing with the need for replacement of out-of-production traditional mechanical and electronic instruments used on older U.S.-registered aircraft. In the past, the company has supplied traditional two- and three-inch instruments mostly for the European aircraft industry, with few sales in the U.S. Revue Thommen also supplies mechanical flight instruments to replace out-of-production instruments on the flight decks of older aircraft. Iten told EBACE Convention News that his company has supplied the AD32 air data display for a considerable number of RVSM retrofits in the U.S., including for the Cessna 441 (STC holder Corpair of Fresno, California) and the Cheyenne 400LS and III (Jettech of Littleton, Colorado).
