Dror Yahav, Chief Executive Officer at Universal Avionics, said, “This contract showcases the trust aircraft owners and manufacturers place in KAPTURE to meet evolving regulatory requirements and enhance data collection. The KAPTURE system’s compliance with the latest mandates combined with its robust features and data analysis capabilities make it a compelling choice for discerning operators.” Marc Bouliane Ross Dickey Don Milum Mathew Devitt Don Milum Robert Randall Read More: https://lnkd.in/dPBYydud  #AviationIndustry #Aerospace #AviationTechnology #DataCollection #RegulatoryCompliance #AircraftInnovation #Avionics #AerospaceEngineering #AviationSafety #DataAnalysis #KAPTURESystem #AviationNews #UniversalAvionics #AircraftManagement #FlightData #AviationTech #AviationSolutions #AviationLeadership

🚀 Exciting Insights from Unifly's CEO, Andres Van Swalm, at the Alliance for New Mobility Europe Panel at #AirspaceWorld! 🌐 Discussing the challenges of UTM, he emphasized alignment between regulations, and the importance of a pragmatic approach.🛰️ Highlighting the need for collaboration among CAAs to share competencies and learn from other implementations (with support from Eurocontrol and EASA), he urged embracing innovative approaches for the future. 🚀 “Every country will need to implement its own specific U-space based on their local needs by using harmonised building blocks, such as risk assessment.“ 🌐 #UTM #Uspace #AviationInnovation

🛫 Hot take: with the potential exception of a handful of top-performing and highly innovative players, commercial aerospace is no longer an industry for small suppliers. 🚀 Thanks to Aviation Week Network (Joseph Anselmo, Michael Bruno) for publishing my perspective on how we need to raise the bar for the next-gen supply chain in aerospace and its implications for small suppliers. Do you agree? 📩 PS: Feel free to DM if you would like a PDF of the article - though I trust all my A&D contacts have an Aviation Week account already #aerospace #supplychain #smallbusiness (🙏 John Stoll)

Get big or get out. Has the aerospace and defense industry evolved beyond SMEs? This op-ed in Aviation Week is both informative and thought provoking. I welcome other's opinions here or in letters to our editor!

This is a very interesting piece by Matteo Peraldo on the evolving aerospace supply chain and the step change we may see with the next generation of single-aisle aircraft. A few thoughts: - I agree that the ‘table stakes’ will continue to increase for aerospace manufacturers. The required technology stack will continue to get bigger with robust cybersecurity, model-based engineering and digital supply chain tools. Software is (still) eating the world. - Tight labor markets in the western world are a secular trend. Legacy programs and production systems created a push for ‘low-cost country’ manufacturing as a means to reduce cost. The next generation of aircraft and production systems will prioritize automation and reducing total labor content. This will be a shift to capital over labor and businesses with more operating leverage requiring more scale. - Additive is a game-changing technology for certain types of components, creating an entirely new design space. However, traditional manufacturing processes will still be critical for a number of reasons, including mechanical properties, throughput and cost. - I agree that we are moving to a supply chain that is more consolidated, composed of suppliers with more diversified portfolios and stronger balance sheets. It takes so many technologies to build a modern aircraft though, and there will always be corners of the market where small suppliers emerge because of some unique IP or other differentiating factor.
