Extant Aerospace Announces New License Agreements

After-market avionics supplier Extant Aerospace announced on Tuesday at NBAA 2016 that it has completed three new licensing agreements with GE Aviation (Booth 2270). The products—which range from AC motors, flight data and cockpit voice recorders, inverters, temperature sensors and controls to power supplies—are installed on various platforms and aircraft, including Falcons, Hawkers, Gulfstreams, King Airs and Learjets. Per the terms of the agreement, Extant will be responsible for all continuing forward-fit and aftermarket manufacturing, as well as repair and spares support.

Extant also announced that it has added a product transition center to its Melbourne, Fla., headquarters to help integrate newly licensed or acquired products from OEMs. The center is equipped to facilitate first-article build, test and inspection in accordance with all requirements, and the new transition center will also allow review of all technical data, specifications and potential obsolescence issues before the aircraft is worked on.
