- FLYHT Aerospace Solutions Ltd. (TSX-V: FLY) (OTCQX: FLYLF) (the "Company" or "FLYHT")
today announced a cooperation with
MBS Electronic Systems GmbH ("MBS"), a leading provider of secure
data loading solutions that enable compliant avionics software

collaborated to develop a secure wireless avionics software and
onboard data loading solution with the goal of enabling customers
to fully comply with new security requirements.
Stated Kent Jacobs, President of
FLYHT, "Airlines have been seeking secure data loading that makes
for a lower cost and quicker installation and meets all regulator
requirements. This partnership with MBS enables us to combine our
AFIRS Edge platform, an advanced secure avionics data repository,
with an advanced avionics data loader capability provided by the
experts at MBS. Together, this creates a streamlined, secure
solution for airlines to utilize, complying with secure data
requirements and improving operating efficiency."
Added Dr. Charles Nicholls,
Technical Director at MBS, "As a leader in the secure portable data
loader field, we have seen increased demand from airlines for an
onboard solution that meets the guidance of ARINC 645-1. Together
with FLYHT, we can service this growing need among the
airlines."
Added Willie Cecil, Sales Director
at FLYHT, "Both companies' technologies are so mature that an
initial prototype solution was developed and will be demonstrated
in Memphis. We are excited by airline interest in our solution, and
we plan to qualify and certify the solution within the next six
months."
FLYHT and MBS plan to showcase the
new solution to airlines at the annual Aviation Maintenance
Conference in Memphis on May 10-12, 2022. This collaboration offers
the opportunity to evaluate the strength of a combined solution,
with the intention to solidify a financial arrangement following
the Memphis event.
