EMTEQ to Receive FAA and EASA STCs for ELTs, Flight Data Recorders and EHS/ELS
15 January 2007
New Berlin, Wisconsin – Aircraft system integrator EMTEQ has been granted FAA STC (supplemental type certificate) ST03367AT for a Dual Artex C406-N Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) installation on McDonnell-Douglas KC-10 aircraft. In addition, EASA approval is pending on EMTEQ's A300 STC for Flight Recorder System Upgrade per FAR 121.344 / 129.20, as well as for ELS / EHS installations on Boeing 767-200 / 300 aircraft.
ELS / EHS is mandated in first in Germany, United Kingdom and France for civil aircraft having a maximum take-off mass greater than 5,700kg or a maximum cruising true airspeed in excess of 250kt. EMTEQ's ELS / EHS installation kit is a cost-effective, safe solution that also meets FAA standards.
EMTEQ owns more than 20 STCs for major OEM ELT installations, and more than 100 overall for communication, navigation and interior Light Emitting Diode (LED) lighting systems. Other McDonnell-Douglas model aircraft STCs cover the DC-6, DC-8, DC-9, DC-10, MD-11 and MD-80/90 series. More than 50 EMTEQ STCs have been approved by EASA, Chinese, Canadian and other non-US certifying authorities.
EMTEQ also designs and certifies integrated installation kits incorporating electromechanical and LED lighting for air transport, corporate, VIP / HOS, military and general aviation aircraft.
