CALGARY, ALBERTA—(Marketwire – Oct. 11, 2012) – FLYHT Aerospace Solutions Ltd.

On September 14, 2011, FLYHT announced a contract with a Nigerian airline, to which the Boeing 747 STC applies. Since then, the airline made the decision to install AFIRS 228 in replacement of the contracted AFIRS 220 to take advantage of the additional features of the AFIRS 228. The STC allows for the immediate activation of the AFIRS technology and enables its full functionality on the installed aircraft.

An STC constitutes regulatory approval to modify an aircraft’s design while retaining airworthiness certification and is necessary to permit retrofit installation of aeronautical products such as AFIRS. The Company has activation STCs for 32 aircraft types for either/or AFIRS 220 and 228 products. The Company is developing STC’s for numerous other aircraft types.
