AADs 

The Federal Aviation Administration says (FAR 105.45) that manufacturers list the Automatic Activation Devices that are approved for use in their tandem system. Wings Tandem allows appropriate Cypres, Vigil, and m2 AADs in our tandem rigs.

Cypres makes a Tandem-specific AAD. Only the "Tandem" Cypres is authorized in Wings Tandem.

The Cypres 2 comes in either a tandem-specific version, or Changable Mode set to Tandem. Either of these are authorized in Wings Tandem.

m2 is the newest, most affordable AAD available in the US today. The tandem-specific version is the only model m2 allowed in the Wings Tandem.

The multi-purpose Vigil and Vigil 2 can be set for Student, Pro, and Tandem. The Vigil AAD must be set to "Tandem" when used in a Wings Tandem system.
