LED Logo Light to replace Halogen based logo lights

Talon Aerospace LED logo light Assemblies to replace Halogen  replacement.

Do you recognize the following problems with your existing logo lights?

  • Halogen bulbs are replaced frequently
  • Lights are installed in difficult to reach areas and requires use of cherrypicker or lift
  • Lens sealant does not have sufficient time to dry, leading to moisture ingress within horizontal stabilizer
  • Transformer requires frequent replacement
  • Incandescent bulb color temperature changes appearance of corporate logo

Get Light-Years ahead of your competition!

Talon Aerospace LED logo light assemblies are designed to allow for plug and play replacement for the existing HLX64621 halogen bulb based logo lights. Talon uses a rack to replace the OEM logo light housing. The LED module and transformer assembly are mounted to the rack. The OEM aircraft connector is mounted on the transformer assembly, making the LED logo light assembly plug and play.

The lens, lens gasket and hardware can be retained from the OEM unit, but Talon does make replacement lenses available for most applications. The Talon logo light assemblies operate on 115VAC 400Hz aircraft power. A transformer within the assembly steps the voltage down to 14V to power the LED module. All internal connectors are circular mil-spec connectors.

Automatic External Defibrillators (AED) in Aviation Use

Automatic External Defibrillators (AEDs) are becoming increasingly common in daily life. Recognized national health authorities in several countries now recommend the use of AEDs in public and private environments, including aviation.

As a result, operators are being advised by these health institutes to install AED equipment on board aircraft.

To support this initiative, AMC1 CAT.IDE.A.220(b)(4) has been issued, providing additional guidance. This is further explained in EASA FAQ No. 19169, available at: https://www.easa.europa.eu/faq/19169

While AED units are widely certified for civil (non-aviation) use, demonstrating compliance with DOA 160 standards for aerospace applications can sometimes be challenging.

Fokker Services has successfully conducted EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) verification testing for the following aircraft types:

  • Fokker 50

  • Fokker 70/100

  • Embraer 170/190

  • De Havilland Dash-8

The testing was performed using the following commercially available AED models:

Approved Conditions for the Permit to Fly

Under specific circumstances, such as maintenance repositioning flights or check flights—special flight conditions must be defined to operate the aircraft safely and in compliance with regulations.

When a non-EASA aircraft manufacturer issues a No Technical Objection (NTO) or similar statement, EASA requires these be assessed and formalized by a DOA-approved organization before a Permit to Fly application can be submitted.
