Designing, manufacturing, selling, and supporting high-integrity avionics systems, FreeFlight Systems is an active and proud member of the Aircraft Electronics Association (AEA), the voice of the general aviation aircraft electronics industry.
Founded in 1957, the AEA has a long-standing history of representing member companies, including maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) facilities, manufacturers of avionics equipment, instrument repair facilities, instrument manufacturers, airframe manufacturers, test equipment manufacturers, major distributors, engineers, and educational institutions. The AEA represents nearly 1,300 member companies in more than 40 countries.
AEA’s mission is to be a worldwide, self-sustaining organization committed to enhancing the profitability of its members by providing effective leadership to its members, facilitating the communications between members, encouraging members to establish critical quality processes, furthering the education of its members, and influencing the applicable legislative and regulatory processes. The AEA brings members together by hosting several events throughout the year.
