Wing-Mounted
Honeywell's Aerospace position measurement products are specifically engineered to meet the challenges of
wing-mounted applications. Many of Honeywell's position measurement products are crucial to aircraft
operation, and carry MTBF (mean time between failure) beyond 200,000 hours. Additionally, all products are
backed by Honeywell global support.
