What is the age of the original Collins Proline I avionics product line?
Collins Proline I began production in the early to mid 1970s and was very common in many business aircraft in the 1970s and early 1980s. The original instruction manuals for most of the units is dated in 1974. Although production of the Proline continued through the 1980s, it can be assumed that a Proline I unit is 20-30 years old on average.
