LINCOLN, NEB. — Duncan Aviation has exclusive rights to BendixKing STC (Supplemental Type Certificate) developed to install the BendixKing AeroCruze 100 Autopilot in Mooney M20-series aircraft. Working with a launch customer from Seattle, Washington, the Duncan Aviation team at the company’s Satellite in Denver, Colorado, worked with an engineering team from Peregrine Aviation to develop the STC in 2022.

BendixKing has received STC approval for the AeroCruze 100 in the Mooney Series aircraft and continues to optimize the systems through an STC revision. Additionally, in 2026 Duncan Aviation’s Engineering team created additional drawings and installation instructions for specific Mooney models, where manufacturing processes deviated over the many years Mooney built the M20 Series aircraft. These additional drawings and instructions have been approved by the BendixKing ODA, and will soon be available as approved additional STC data.

This affordable, digital, two-axis, standalone autopilot system incorporates features such as Track Select Mode, GPS Nav Mode, GPS Steering Mode, Altitude Hold, Pitch Trim Annunciation, and Emergency AP Level Mode, among many others.

Owners/operators of the Mooney M20-series aircraft may contact Duncan Aviation’s Parts & Rotables Sales Team for information about ordering the STC kits (consisting of the computer, servos, hardware, and wiring).
