Dynon Taps Randy Lervold as New VP of Marketing and Sales

Dynon has announced that Randy Lervold will join the company as their Vice President of Marketing and Sales. In this newly created role Lervold will be responsible for expanding Dynon’s worldwide market reach as it capitalizes on the recent certification of their flagship SkyView HDX system.

Robert Hamilton, Dynon President, says, “Entering the certified market, Dynon has an amazing opportunity to modernize the GA aircraft fleet with innovative, safety enhancing technology at a fraction of the price of existing competitive avionics. As we expand in this new space, Randy’s marketing and sales expertise and track record of building successful companies will accelerate our growth.”

Lervold brings over three decades of executive leadership experience and brand building to Dynon. He previously led CubCrafters since 2009, most recently as its President. Under Randy’s direction, Yakima-based CubCrafters emerged as one of the leading manufacturers of both Light Sport and Type Certificated Aircraft in the backcountry aircraft space. Before CubCrafters, Randy held a number of senior leadership roles at consumer electronics companies.

“I am excited to join Dynon at this pivotal time in its history,” Lervold says. “With its legacy of innovation in both product development and certification Dynon has more opportunity ahead of it than ever before. Dynon is leading a sea change in avionics, and I look forward to helping the company realize its potential.”
