Fokker Services B.V. has selected EMTEQ®, Inc. to provide LED cabin lighting upgrades for over fifty Fokker F70 & F100 aircraft. Aiming to improve Fokker aircraft for current and future users, European airlines are enhancing their F70 and F100 cabins with EMTEQ’s LED interior lighting, replacing older lighting systems. The first installation will be carried out mid-July on an F70. Fokker Services is an independent Aerospace services provider, and Type Certificate holder of all 750 Fokker aircraft in service today. Supporting various aircraft types with first-class maintenance, Fokker prides itself on its experience in the aviation industry and worldwide reputation as a manufacturer of reliable aircraft.
“EMTEQ is thrilled to count Fokker Services among its growing list of commercial aircraft LED interior lighting customers,” said Jeff Rozewicz, Director of Sales & Engineering at EMTEQ. “Our LED Wash Lighting offers operators of Fokker and other aircraft types immediate benefits: improved aesthetics, weight savings, reduced electrical power, increased functionality and reliability, which means lower maintenance costs,” added Jeff.
These orders represent a turning point in commercial aircraft lighting, indicating airlines moving to LED solid state technology for the entire cabin, offering numerous immediate benefits. The lighting technology being installed on these aircraft is EMTEQ’s ELW83 high intensity wash lighting, ideal for both commercial and regional aircraft.
