Certified DE-modification of Obsolete or Custom STC Installations

As part of lease return, phase-out, or aircraft transition processes, removal or reversal of previously installed STCs is often required. These could include obsolete systems, lessee-specific modifications, or customer-tailored configurations no longer applicable for the next operator.

Fokker Services provides certified engineering support for the full demodification process, ensuring compliance, traceability, and airworthiness restoration aligned with the requirements of the new lessee or owner.

Solid-State Recorders (SSCVR and SSFDR) and ULB/RIPS

Enhanced Flight Data Recorder /Cockpit Voice Recorder Systems for Improved Compliance and Reliability

Several aviation authorities have mandated—or are in the process of mandating—the use of Solid-State Recorders and Underwater Locator Beacons (ULBs) with increased performance requirements.

Key regulatory milestones include:

  • By 2018: All flight recorder-mounted ULBs must have a minimum 90-day transmission duration.

  • By 2019: All flight recorders are expected to be solid-state types with a minimum recording duration of 120 minutes.

  • Post-ED112 requirements: Flight recorders must be capable of storing 20 to 25 hours of data.

In response to both regulatory changes and operational needs, Fokker Services introduces a new generation of Solid-State Flight Data Recorders (FDRs), Cockpit Voice Recorders (CVRs), and ULBs for integration across your fleet. These units offer significant advantages over traditional tape-based systems, including:

  • Improved technical dispatch reliability

  • Reduced maintenance costs

  • Increased system performance and recording integrity

To further enhance survivability and regulatory compliance, Recorder Independent Power Supply (RIPS) units can also be offered, either as add-on modules or integrated solutions.
