MAA member Comar Engineering has won a large order for test rigs from Goodrich Actuation Systems for the Bombardier C-Series programme.
According to Comar's Stuart Martin: "This fantastic order comes as a result of our excellent performance on the A350 project where Comar produced the TRAS rigs for both production and systems simulation on the A350 Iron Bird at Airbus in Toulouse."
Goodrich, which is producing the high-lift system for the new Bombardier aircraft's wings, has awarded Comar contracts to produce the following test rigs:
- 2 complete wing systems rigs 2 flap test rigs (Qual & PAT)
- 2 slat test rigs (Qual & PAT)
- 2 PDU test rigs (Qual & PAT)
- 1 OBB test rig
- 1 VAFN systems test rig
