The Registration Statement relates to the proposed issuance and exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) of up to $2,650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of registered 5.500% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2027 (the “Exchange Notes”) for an equal principal amount of unregistered 5.500% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2027 of TransDigm outstanding on the date hereof (the “Outstanding Notes”).

Capitalized terms used herein and not separately defined shall have the meanings given to them in the Registration Statement.

We have not independently verified the facts so relied on.


B.	Assumptions

B-2	All individuals have sufficient legal capacity to perform their functions with respect to the Indenture and the Exchange Offer and the transaction contemplated by the Indenture and the Exchange Offer (the “Transaction”).


C.	Opinions

Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications and exclusions stated below, we express the following opinions:


C-1	Each of AvtechTyee and Bridport is a corporation validly existing under Washington law. Avista is a corporation validly existing under Wisconsin law.


C-2	As of the date of the Indenture, each of the Subsidiaries (a) had all necessary corporate power to execute and deliver the Indenture, and (b) as of the date hereof, has all necessary corporate power to perform its obligations under the Indenture.


C-3	The Indenture has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of each of the Subsidiaries.


C-4	The execution and delivery of the Indenture on November 13, 2019 by the Subsidiaries, did not, and current performance of their obligations thereunder does not:

(a) violate statutory laws that counsel exercising customary professional judgment would in our experience reasonably recognize as typically applicable to agreements similar to the Indenture and transactions similar to the Transaction; or

(b) violate such party’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.


D.	Qualifications; Exclusions


D-1	Except to the extent expressly noted to the contrary in this opinion letter, we express no opinion as to the following matters, or the effect, if any, that they may have on the opinions expressed herein:

state or regional level), and judicial decisions to the extent that they deal with any such statutes, ordinances, administrative decisions, rules or regulations;

(d) pension and employee benefit laws and regulations.

For purposes of expressing the opinions herein, (a) we have examined the laws of the State of Washington and the State of Wisconsin, (b) we have assumed that those laws govern the construction, interpretation and enforcement of the Indenture and the Exchange Offer, whether or not the Indenture or the Exchange Offer includes a choice of law provision stipulating the application of the laws of some other jurisdiction, and (c) our opinions are limited to such laws. We have not reviewed, nor are our opinions in any way predicated on an examination of, the laws of any other jurisdiction, and we expressly disclaim responsibility for advising you as to the effect, if any, that the laws of any other jurisdiction may have on the opinions set forth herein.

The opinions expressed herein (a) are limited to matters expressly stated herein, and no other opinions may be implied or inferred, including that we have performed any actions in order to provide the legal opinions and statements contained herein other than as expressly set forth, and (b) are as of the date hereof (except as otherwise noted above). We disclaim any undertaking or obligation to update these opinions for events and circumstances occurring after the date hereof (including changes in law or facts, or as to facts relating to prior events that are subsequently brought to our attention), or to consider their applicability or correctness as to persons or entities other than the addressees.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Act”), or the related rules and regulations promulgated under the Act nor do we admit that we are experts with respect to any part of such Registration Statement within the meaning of the term “expert” as used in the Act or the related rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. We also consent to the reference to our firm under the heading “Legal Matters” in the Registration Statement.

Very truly yours,
