BE Aerospace consists of several acquired businesses and a lot of internally grown businesses. The first two acquisitions, in the late 1980's, were (a division of) Eeco and a company called Bach. The initials were combined to be BE Avionics. (Avionics is a word formed by combining Aviation and electronics, and has been in general use since the 1950's.) That is also why the company's stock symbol is BEAV. BE Avionics products were almost all electronics products for passenger entertainment systems. In the early 1990's, the "Avionics" was changed to "Aerospace" when the company diversified into many non-electronics product lines. And the passenger entertainment business was sold to a French company, Thales.
