Aircraft Modification Design

Ideas keep an aircraft young.

Custom cabin conversions ensure that aircraft are up to the changing demands and requirements that the experience of passing time brings. Whether its a more efficient galley, state-of-the-art communications technology, or retrofitting the latest developments in avionics, aircraft modification design achieves all these things. The process has three stages, aircraft design, production and aircraft certification.

Performed by approved maintenance, design and manufacturing organisations certified by airworthiness authorities, FAA and JAA, the future is here now: commercial aircraft with broadband internet and wireless LAN, aircraft cabins where all entertainment and communications systems are connected via Ethernet.

In Flight Entertainment design

The latest GPS technology makes possible Moving Map Displays, providing real-time flight information to passengers using information from the navigation system to display present position, altitude, destination, speed, time travelled or to travel, and more. Personal entertainment is now part of everyday life, hence IPOD connectivity & DVD. iPod and iPhone music and video connectivity in all classes on Airbus A330-300 aircraft will allow passengers to listen to music and watch videos on their iPod or iPhone through the inflight entertainment system built into the seat. The connector is included in a multi-port panel placed next to the 26cm in-flight entertainment screen on the seat back. Broadband Systems will enable airline passengers to use their own Wi-Fi & cellular devices such as laptops, PDA's, phones and Blackberries in a fully-integrated wireless cabin affordably.

Cockpit mounted cameras can provide enhanced safety in the modern world. Accident investigators have put all their faith until recently in information from black box recorders, Cockpit Voice Recorders and Flight Data Recorders. Neither recorder gives enough information to fully understand the vital last minutes of for example, a terrorist incident. Recorded images, stored in the Black Box, from cockpit mounted cameras, and from other interior and exterior locations can provide authorities with conclusive evidence.

Aircraft galley modification design

Aircraft modification design produces many varied aircraft conversions, aeromedical air ambulance equipment, low voltage aircraft lighting and mandatory modifications like TCAS and EGPWS.

Providing passengers with the highest level of in-flight customer service and catering is crucial to any operator's success. Incorporating the latest equipment into existing galleys, or even designing new custom galleys, with potable water systems, espresso machines, microwave ovens, refrigerators and cabin storage.

VIP and executive jet design.

Modifications extend to many and varied customers, heads of state, special purpose, military special mission, sports teams, VIPs, private individuals, and corporations. From design and manufacturing to management, certification, and installation.

Aerostructures design

Advanced computer software technology is now available for interior monument stress analysis, damage tolerance analysis for aircraft skin penetration, bulkhead modifications and other fuselage cutouts or expansions like cargo doors, analysis of high stress zones such as engine mounts, engine nacelle environment and analysis of avionic rack installations, and aircraft seating.
