Hilton Software announces WingX app now supported by Dac International’s GDC64

Hilton Software, producer of the WingX Pro7 flight planning and navigation app, announced at NBAA 2013 that Dac International’s GDC64 an interface device will now support the app. The GDC64, certified for use on Part 25 aircraft, can deliver a wealth of information to WingX Pro7, including navigation, aircraft and air data information that is available on the aircraft’s Arinc 429 databus. The GDC64 has won EASA approval for installation in the Bombardier Learjet 60 and Dash-8.

Francisco Hernandez, general manager of Dac International, said the company has worked closely with Hilton Software over the past few months to achieve WingX Pro7’s full compatibility with the GDC64.

“Consistent with our push into the airline and military markets and as a result of our close collaboration with DAC International,” said Hilton Software founder Hilton Goldstein, “WingX Pro7 can now access and integrate the tremendous amount of data on the industry standard Arinc 429 bus.”
