Gardner Standard acquires Shadin Avionics

Gardner Standard has announced the acquisition of Shadin, L.P. d.b.a Shadin Avionics (Shadin Avionics) from The Wright Group.

Based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, Shadin Avionics maintains a rich history of designing, manufacturing, and providing support services for fuel flow systems, engine trend monitoring, altitude management systems, air data computers and other instrumentation for turbine, piston and rotor aircraft for the military, general and corporate aviation markets. More recently, Shadin has redefined itself as a global leader in aviation electronics (avionics) integration and data management solutions with its Avionics Interface Systems (AIS) and new Volta product lines.  These products simplify aircraft modernization and will support future generations of conventional and electric aircraft.

Led by CEO Daniel Nelson, Shadin Avionics is growing rapidly and is well-positioned to continue that success with its recent move to a state-of-the-art 20,000 ft² design and manufacturing facility in Eden Prairie.
