Obsolete Parts

SSAI has been continually dealing with the problems of obsolete parts. As a designer of aircraft systems (See our Aircraft Systems Division) we have experienced first hand the changes in the electronic parts and components industry. These changes have been driven by market forces that have changed drastically over the past 25+ years. The commercial market truly dominates the Integrated Circuits (ICs) and to a large extent the active and discrete components sections of the industry.

As part of our cooperation with the flight simulator and aircraft systems communities, we have tabulated a list of suppliers. This list is intended as a service to the communities and is NOT an endorsement of these suppliers/vendors.
