  • Viking and PAL Aerospace Sign DHC-6 Twin Otter Aerial Firefighting System Contract
    For Immediate Release Viking and PAL Aerospace Sign DHC-6 Twin Otter Aerial Firefighting System Contract Calgary, Alberta and St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador - August 3, 2021 -- Viking Air Limited (“Viking”) and PAL Aerospace Canada are proud to announce the establishment of a contract to support the Twin Otter Fire Attack System. The agreement’s scope includes the design, manufacturing, installation, and certification of the Aerial Firefighting System for the Twin Otter DHC-6 300 and 400 aircraft. It is anticipated that the Aerial Firefighting System will be certified in 2022 and an international customer will receive the first converted aircraft. This undertaking is a progressive effort between Viking and PAL Aerospace to build additional capabilities for the already versatile DHC-6 Twin Otter Series 300 and 400 aircraft. The Aerial Firefighting System will allow the Twin Otter to transition effortlessly between global firefighting missions and its more traditional mission profiles, including transporting passengers and cargo. The airtanker-configured Twin Otter aircraft will help mitigate and fight wildfires with the ability to drop up to 700 US gallons of water or retardant in challenging environments. Phillip Garbutt, PAL Aerospace Senior Vice President of Global Support said, “PAL Aerospace is proud to partner with Viking on this exciting project that supports innovation, economic growth, and supply chains in Canada. As an established DHC-6 Twin Otter Operator, we know firsthand the capability and versatility of the aircraft and consider it a privilege to bring our comprehensive design, engineering and modification capabilities to bear in developing this new capability.” “We are happy to work with PAL Aerospace to provide our operators the ability to utilize our DHC-6 Twin Otter for specialized aerial firefighting missions,” said Benjamin Carson, Director of Customer Support Operations, Viking.

  • 2006 Challenger 300
    E&V ID A-16050301 2006 CHALLENGER 300 BOMBARDIER CHALLENGER 300 (CL300) ASKING PRICE: US$ 7.950.000 YOM 2006 MSN 20097 Bombardier is a Canadian multinational aerospace and transportation company, founded in 1942 in Quebec. Starting as a maker of snow machines, over the years it has become a large manufacturer of regional aircraft, business jets, mass transportation equipment, recreational equipment and a provider of financial services. Bombardier is a Fortune Global 500 conglomerate company. Its headquarters are in Montreal. In 1986 Bombardier acquired Canadair. Shortly thereafter, de Havilland Canada, and Learjet operations were absorbed by the aerospace arm, which now accounts for over half of company revenue. Bombardier’s most popular aircraft currently include its Dash 8, CRJ100/200/440, and CRJ700/900/1000 lines of regional airliners. Bombardier also manufactures the CL-415 amphibious water-bomber, the Global Express and the Challenger business jet. Learjet continues to operate as a subsidiary of Bombardier, manufacturing jets under the Learjet marque. The slogan was changed in 2012 from “We Move People” to “Evolution of Mobility.” Bombardier’s Challenger 300 aircraft was the first in the super-midsize business jet category to challenge the standard with its clean sheet design. After extensive research to achieve customers’ business goals, the aircraft was crafted for true U.S. coast-to-coast range and features unmatched room in which to conference and work.

  • Our Canadian Aerospace Industry: Towards a Second Century of History-Making
    Our Canadian Aerospace Industry: Towards a Second Century of History-making Presentation by Robert E. Brown President and Chief Executive Officer CAE Inc. Before the AIAC 47th Annual General Meeting and Conference Wednesday, September 17, 2008 Page 1 Good morning, Ladies and Gentlemen. It is a pleasure for me to be here today and acknowledge the presence of so many friends and business partners. Next year, Canada will mark the 100th anniversary of the first airplane flight over our land. In February 1909, a pioneer by the name of J.A.D. McCurdy took to the sky in a frail-looking biplane called the Silver Dart. Young McCurdy and Canada’s tiny aviation community never looked back, and as a result, their daring achievement led to the development of a whole new industry — our own aerospace industry. How did a country with a population of 7 million in the early 20th century become the fourth nation in the world in the field of aerospace? How did Montreal become the only place in the world where you can build an entire aircraft? How did we manage to attract, develop and hang on to global leaders like Bell Helicopter Textron, Pratt & Whitney Canada and Bombardier? And, closer to my own heart, how did an enterprise like CAE become a world leader in civil simulation, with more than 70% of the market? How can a country as small as Canada, have such a glorious jewel in its crown? To find the answers to these questions, one must go back in time. Shortly after McCurdy’s groundbreaking flight, World War 1 saw Canada’s aviation industry take off.

  • No Surprises Here
    REPORT 2009 BUSINESS AIRCRAFT FLEET US were having a fire sale trying to NO SURPRISES HERE quickly get rid of their business air- craft in order to avoid government and public scrutiny, countries like Brazil were turning to Business Aviation as a business solution. The result – well, we think the numbers speak for them- selves. So yes, 2009 was a slow year for Business Aviation – as expected. The World Fleet continued to grow, although at a much slower rate than past years (the world fleet grew by seven percent last year, in comparison to this year’s 4.8 percent). And yes, Europe may have been a surprise as it navigated the crisis fairly well, but only saw a 9.7 percent increase in its fleet, which although strong is almost half the size of last year’s world-lead- ing 18 percent. But the slowdowns in Europe and the US are made up for by the 15.3, 27.1 and 13.3 percent growth rates in Africa, Asia/Middle East and South America respectively. FLEET TOTALS Ok, so we changed our minds about (As of End 2009) 2009. Business Aviation is not slowing World Fleet 29,992 down. Business Aviation is simply European Fleet 3,959 changing, shifting and going where Jet Aircraft Worldwide 17,118 business goes – building new Turboprops Worldwide 12,499 economies and ensuring that business gets done.

  • Aircraft Tire Data
    Aircraft tire Engineering Data Introduction Michelin manufactures a wide variety of sizes and types of tires to the exacting standards of the aircraft industry. The information included in this Data Book has been put together as an engineering and technical reference to support the users of Michelin tires. The data is, to the best of our knowledge, accurate and complete at the time of publication. To be as useful a reference tool as possible, we have chosen to include data on as many industry tire sizes as possible. Particular sizes may not be currently available from Michelin. It is advised that all critical data be verified with your Michelin representative prior to making final tire selections. The data contained herein should be used in conjunction with the various standards ; T&RA1, ETRTO2, MIL-PRF- 50413, AIR 8505 - A4 or with the airframer specifications or military design drawings. For those instances where a contradiction exists between T&RA and ETRTO, the T&RA standard has been referenced. In some cases, a tire is used for both civil and military applications. In most cases they follow the same standard. Where they do not, data for both tires are listed and identified. The aircraft application information provided in the tables is based on the most current information supplied by airframe manufacturers and/or contained in published documents. It is intended for use as general reference only. Your requirements may vary depending on the actual configuration of your aircraft. Accordingly, inquiries regarding specific models of aircraft should be directed to the applicable airframe manufacturer.
