“This avionics agreement marks a collaborative effort that will be foundational to Air India’s 737 MAX fleet for years to come,” said Craig Bries, Vice President and General Manager of Avionics Sales, Marketing, and Aftermarket Services at Collins Aerospace.
“Equipping their new MAX fleet with our advanced suite of avionics underscores Air India’s trust in our technology and commitment to innovation. Collins’ solutions will deliver exceptional performance and reliability, contributing to Air India’s continued success,” he said.
