TECNAM MMA receives full EASA certification
Airborne Technologies GmbH announced today receiving full EASA certification for the TECNAM MMA.
Airborne Technologies renowned for integrating sensors to general aviation aircraft, selected the TECNAM P2006T twin as ideal potential aerial basis platform for performing sensitive surveillance mission and surveying operations.
The engineering team at Airborne Technologies developed a set of modifications to this all metal, high wing aircraft to evolve it into today's TECNAM MMA.
The extensive modifications which are endorsed via the EASA STC include the creation of a large in-floor hatch with electrically operated doors, mission power supply (28 VOLTS, 60 AMPS) via a separate alternator and mission battery, a retractable sensor lift over the floor hatch for discrete sensors deployment, a multi-functional operator environment, a large electronic tray in the systems compartment, pilots assisting screens and a number of hard points for different mission downlink antennas.
"All modifications have been initiated by our own experience, designed by our in-house R&D team and implemented by our engineers based on the extensive experience of providing turnkey solutions in this very specialized marketplace", said Airborne Technologies CEO Wolfgang Grumeth. The MMA offers unrivalled economics and with the recent delivery of the first production aircraft to Russia, we look forward to a very busy and productive future in fulfilling worldwide orders."
