DART Aerospace’s Bell 505 Emergency Flotation System, the first and only such system available on the market, has recently received certification from the Federal Aviation Association (FAA).
With Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA) approval issued in mid-February of this year, the system has started seeing its first deliveries.
With the strong, worldwide demand for the Bell 505, this FAA, TCCA, and Japanese Civil Aviation Bureau (JCAB) certified float system is quickly becoming a key product for DART Aerospace.
“The validation of the Bell 505 EFS by the FAA in a relatively short timeframe reflects the confidence that the authorities have in the design of this product and the substantiating documentation,” said David Shepherd, vice-president of certification at DART Aerospace.
“DART appreciates the support we received from Bell in developing this product. We are happy to see that the Bell 505 aircraft is gaining momentum and look forward to bringing other products to market for the Bell 505 in the near future.”
