With mixed emotions, we celebrated the retirement of Mary Overstreet today. She is retiring as Sr. Technical Writer after 20 years of service. We wish her the very best as she embarks on the next chapter of her life. Farewell from Mary Overstreet... When I got the job at Howell Instruments, I was pretty sure it was my dream job. I was happy to find out I was right! It became more than that as I learned the tools of the job, got to do a lot of new things, eventually rediscovering my interest in photography, and then getting to fully use that in the company as well as out. I’ve had mentors (thank you, Warren) and a lot of friends, heard plenty of crazy stories (from Shep Brown, former CEO), got to set foot in a C-130, go to the Quad-A trade show and climb in some of the helicopters for which we have products. In general, it was never boring. I didn’t know when I started that I’d be here twenty years, but I’m so glad I have been! I just wish I could’ve started here sooner. It’s been an honor and a pleasure to create background graphics for our display units, and create videos, logos, company newsletters, and take photos at company events. Working with such brilliant minds has amazed me. I can’t say enough good things about the people who work here. They have gone out of their way to be helpful, kind, and courteous. I will certainly miss you all! And I wish Howell Instruments the best of success always. —Mary

HOWELL INSTRUMENTS AND CAPITOL HELICOPTERS PARTNER TO PROVIDE A UH-60 MODERNIZATION SUITE Howell Instruments, Inc. has partnered with Capitol Helicopters to engineer and manufacture an aftermarket cockpit conversion for the UH-60. The UH-60/S-70 Modernization Suite integrates the Engine Instrument System (EIS) with a Garmin Flight and Navigational Suite to bring advanced VFR avionics to the UH-60/S-70 family of helicopters. The upgraded all-glass system delivers advanced features such as: · Real-time condition parameters · Visual and aural warnings to enhance awareness and safety · Dual redundant auto-switching input signals · Commercial off-the-shelf flight instruments Marc Paganini, previous CEO of Airbus Helicopters North America who recently joined Howell as CEO, comments, “We are pleased to have received from Capitol Helicopters, our launch customer, an order to modernize the avionics suites for six UH-60 helicopters. Our solution provides extended life and significant operating savings for all UH-60 operators worldwide.” “The glass panel product that we developed with Howell is bringing improved situational awareness to our pilots and a greater margin of safety to every mission we fly, “ said Justin McGowan, Program Director of Capitol Helicopters. “We knew that’s what our team needed and believed others would be eager for it as well.” An IFR version of the UH-60 Modernization Suite has been ordered by an international customer and is scheduled for delivery next year.
