Innovative Solutions & Support, Inc.(IS&S) (NASDAQ: ISSC) received the
first and only Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Supplemental Type
Certification (STC) for its patented ThrustSense® Autothrottle for
retrofit in the King Air. ThrustSense, which provides FADEC like engine
protection, is a full regime autothrottle, from takeoff to landing
phases of flight, including go-around, that allows the pilot to
automatically control the power setting of the engine.

ThrustSense computes and controls appropriate power levels reducing
pilot workload bringing a new level of convenience and safety for King
Air Owners and Operators. ThrustSense ensures stabilized approaches by
controlling speeds in the descent. During high pilot workload the
autothrottle prevents the airplane from getting dangerously slow or fast
and additionally protects against overtorque and overtemp.

Control of the revolutionary autothrottle is housed in an easy to
install Autothrottle Control Panel (ATCP) that provides autothrottle
control interface. The optimized design for retrofit allows for no
structural modifications to the existing throttle quadrant and can be
installed in four days.

This year IS&S will offer a certified software upgrade for King Air Vmca
Mitigation with real-time monitoring of YAW providing additional safety
in engine-out conditions.

ThrustSense is also the first and only certified autothrottle for the
PC-12 Platform and is offered as a standalone installation integrated
with the Company’s Integrated Stand by Unit (ISU) or with its PC-12
NexGen Flight Deck. IS&S will offer ThrustSense to virtually all PT6
powered aircraft, a market with over 13,000 individual tail numbers.
