INDERJIT PANESAR, Design Manager

With close to 30 years in the aviation industry, Inder Panesar has a wealth of avionics integration and certification experience on all types of aircraft. After graduating from BCIT with honors in the mid-1990s, Inder started his career as an avionics installation and line technician serving the general aviation, regional airline, cargo transport and rotorcraft sectors. In the early 2000s he transitioned to the business aviation and regional jet sector. With extensive in-depth training and broad range of experience, Inder was instrumental in establishing the avionics department of a British Columbia, Canada-based MRO company. As he excelled, so did the MRO’s business, which became an authorized service center for Hawker, Bombardier, Learjet and Gulfstream corporate jets. The design and integration of major avionics and cabin system retrofits on all types of corporate aircraft became a daily part of Inder’s life.

Joining ADS in 2009 as an avionics systems designer, Inder progressed to serve as a senior certification specialist and is currently the company’s design manager. Over the course of his career in aviation, Inder has developed skills and technical expertise that are well respected by his peers. This has allowed him to play a key role in the design and certification of many glass cockpit, communications, navigation and special missions upgrades that the ADS team has performed.
