When you step into your own jet, you expect the same seamless power, connectivity and technology you enjoy in your living room. You want every device to charge quickly and have plenty of outlets at hand. Delivering that experience at altitude calls for careful engineering and planning.
At Mid Continent Controls we know that bringing home-tech convenience into aircraft cabins takes time. From the first design sketch to the moment a power module is installed in your aircraft, the process can span three to five years. During that time, we iterate through prototypes, put components through rigorous testing, work with certification authorities and finalize production tooling. By the time a new outlet arrives in your cabin, consumer electronics have often moved on to slimmer connectors or faster charging methods.
To avoid grounding your aircraft for a full rewiring every time technology advances, we build future proofing into every outlet and power module. All our charging units share the same physical dimensions and mounting pattern. If a new standard emerges, operators simply remove the old insert, snap in the upgraded module and restore full functionality. There is no cutting into sidewalls, rerouting cable bundles or reworking circuit breakers. What once took weeks now takes a matter of hours.
Our goal is clear: Give aircraft owners and operators the same effortless charging experience they enjoy at home, engineered to meet aviation’s strict safety and reliability standards.
