Technology Partners and Products

Examples of some of the key companies, along with their products and technologies, that Flight Sciences partners with to develop customized, leading edge programs for our clients include:

AVIATION PARTNERS, INC

Aviation Partners, based in Seattle, has developed a "blended" winglet which closes the gap between theory and practice of optimized airflow. Blended winglets create a smooth transition between the planar and vertical surfaces. The result is a new, more efficient wing which adds range, stability – and saves fuel.

f:wz

Optimized flight planning systems have introduced a new level of sophistication to flight operations. These powerful systems model every phase of a flight plan utilizing comprehensive historical data and cost-indexed variables. The result is a flight plan structured to take advantage of the most economical alternatives, predict the potential for delay, and flexible enough to select the optimum combination of least-fuel and least-time operation.

CTT

The CTT Zonal Dryer™ system prevents accumulation of water and reduces the operating weight of your aircraft. Your maintenance team probably thinks water accumulating in an airliner is normal. After all, they find water in almost every aircraft they service. Water accumulation damages aircraft systems and structures, and can add up to 500 kg of weight in a wide body aircraft. Zonal Dryer systems remove the moisture from the air between the cabin liner and the fuselage. The results include more efficient insulation blankets, lower gross weights, lower maintenance costs – and fuel savings.

Light-Weight Cargo Containers

The popularity of wide-bodied aircraft has made ULD cargo containers as essential as efficient engines and ailerons. More than 500,000 ULDs are employed moving cargo and baggage around the world.

Flight Sciences will help you evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of new ULDs to determine which are the most cost-effective (and fuel-efficient) alternatives for your airline’s operation.
