SMS and Delta Engineering Enter into a Memorandum of Understanding
SMS and Delta Engineering, a Panasonic Company, have entered into an MOU to define thecommercial relationship between SMS and DE in relation to the installation and approval of CVMsensors for large radome installations for “WiFi systems” on commercial aircraft. Delta Engineering is notaffiliated with Delta Airl Lnes. Delta Engineering holds the Supplemental Type Certificates (“STC”)controlling the installation and inspection protocals for many of the current WiFi systems, primarily the 2Kand 2KU systems. Delta Engineering and SMS will seek approval from the FAA for a new STC which willexplicitly desgnate CVM as an alternative method of inspection for the WiFi radome on aircraft. SMS istargeting the first installations on aircraft as early as Q3/Q4 of this year.
Delta Air Lines has led the industry by adopting the new generation 2KU radome system across a majorpart of the Delta Air Lines fleet. With assistance from Delta Engineering, SMS has designed a CVM Kitfor B737NG 900 series aircraft. SMS and Delta Engineering will use this initial design, as well as previouslycompleted POADTE-SHM data packages, to seek FAA approval for the new STC. Overall, theincumbent inspection protocols place a very large burden on operators given the frequency of themandated inspection, the complexity of the maintenance tasks required and the distinct possibility thatthe aircraft is held out of service for an additional day due to a myriad of unforeseen delays in theinspection. SMS is highly encouraged that multiple operators are now focused on these applicationsgiven the sheer number of aircraft affected and the ability of CVM to materially reduce inspectionduration and aircraft downtime. We look forward to working with Delta Engineering OrganizationDesignation Authorization (ODA) to obtain FAA approval of the STC, and then proceeding quicklytoward global industry adoption of CVM as a sole mandated, commercial solution.
