FLYHT Receives ATR-42/72 Certification from Brazilian Authorities
CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Mar 28, 2014) - FLYHT Aerospace
Solutions Ltd. (TSX-VENTURE:FLY) ("FLYHT") reported today that it
has received a Supplemental Type Certificate ("STC") for its
Automated Flight Information Reporting System ("AFIRS™") 228 on the
ATR- 42/72 series aircraft from the National Civil Aviation Agency
("ANAC") of Brazil. ANAC is the agency responsible for the
regulation and safety of civil aviation in Brazil.
This is FLYHT's first certification from Brazil and will allow
the Company to proceed with its first AFIRS 228 Brazilian customer
for 12 ATR-200 as announced in a press release on November 12,
2013. The certification was received in a timely manner because
FLYHT was able to submit for validation the certification package
previously approved by Transport Canada.
An STC constitutes regulatory approval to modify an aircraft's
design while retaining airworthiness certification and is necessary
to permit retrofit installation of aeronautical products such as
AFIRS. FLYHT has STCs for 44 aircraft types for AFIRS 220 and 228
products. The Company continues to develop STCs for numerous other
aircraft types.
AFIRS 228 is FLYHT's next-generation flagship product. It is
designed to provide a fully certified avionics platform capable of
meeting all air navigation communications requirements in Europe,
the United States and other jurisdictions around the world. It also
provides the input and outputs necessary to enhance the value of
real-time data for FLYHT's customers globally. The AFIRS 228 will
be the first safety services certified platform on the planet to
provide black box data streaming via FLYHTStream™, FLYHT's patent
pending solution.
