Design-Build-Fly Capabilities

AeroTEC's "Design-Build-Fly" capability offers a comprehensive, end-to-end solution for developing and demonstrating aerospace technologies. This capability integrates all stages of aerospace product development, ensuring a seamless transition from initial design to final flight testing.

Design: AeroTEC’s design phase involves thorough requirements analysis and planning, conceptual design, and advanced simulation. Our team utilizes sophisticated tools like Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to refine designs and optimize performance. This process ensures that every aspect of the design meets rigorous AS9100D standards for efficiency, safety, and functionality.

Build: In the build phase, AeroTEC handles detailed part design, prototype manufacturing, and aircraft modifications. Our facilities support precision manufacturing and integration, including the development of specialized components and modifications to existing airframes. This phase ensures that all parts and systems are constructed to exact specifications and integrated effectively into the aircraft.

Fly: The fly phase encompasses comprehensive testing and evaluation. AeroTEC manages component testing, ground testing, and full-scale flight testing. We utilize specialized test equipment and wind tunnel modeling to validate designs under realistic conditions. Our advanced data acquisition and instrumentation systems capture detailed performance metrics, allowing for precise assessment of the technology's performance and reliability.

This integrated approach ensures that each phase of the development process is aligned and efficient, reducing risks and accelerating the time to market. AeroTEC’s design-build-fly capability provides a robust framework for successfully developing, validating, and demonstrating aerospace technologies.

STC Certification

AeroTEC offers expert STC (Supplemental Type Certificate) certification services, providing end-to-end support for modifying existing aircraft to meet regulatory standards (FAA, JCAB, EASA, etc.). Our services ensure that your modifications are compliant, efficient, and successfully approved.

Pre-Certification Planning: We start with detailed planning and requirements gathering to define the modification scope and impact. This includes feasibility studies and developing a certification plan outlining steps and resources.

Design and Development: Our engineering team designs and develops the modifications, using advanced simulation tools and modeling techniques. This phase ensures the modifications meet performance, safety, and compliance criteria.

Documentation and Compliance: We prepare comprehensive documentation for the STC application, including technical reports and compliance evidence. Our team ensures all documents meet regulatory standards from authorities like the FAA, JCAB, or EASA.

Testing and Validation: AeroTEC conducts rigorous testing, including ground, component, and flight tests as required at our state-of-the-art facilities flight test center in Moses Lake, WA.

Regulatory Liaison: We act as the liaison with regulatory agencies, managing document submissions, addressing inquiries, and resolving issues to streamline the approval process.

Post-Certification Support: After obtaining the STC, we assist with installation, provide operational guidance, and address any post-certification concerns.

AeroTEC’s STC certification services streamline the process of obtaining approvals for aircraft modifications, ensuring compliance and reliability while minimizing risks. Our comprehensive approach and regulatory expertise help you navigate the complexities of certification effectively.

Wind Tunnel Models

AeroTEC has extensive experience designing and building wind tunnel models of varying complexity to meet customer requirements. Models can be designed and built for development as well as certification testing. We work closely with our customers to provide solutions based on their testing and certification requirements, in addition to meeting tight budget and schedule goals.

Our engineers implement a variety of materials and manufacturing processes to find the best balance between production cost, speed of manufacturing and accuracy through 3D printing & precision machining. Many of our design engineers have also lead test programs and understand the need for model designs that support efficient testing.

AeroTEC can provide more than just model design and fabrication – we can offer additional value by creating test plans, managing test programs and coordinating with wind tunnel facilities on behalf of our customers. Our engineers have built strong relationships with wind tunnels across the US and can recommend facilities based on customer and testing needs. Additionally, our design engineers can provide mid-test manufacturing support as well as data analysis of test results as needed.

To help our customers reduce cost, especially for tests traditionally conducted in expensive high-speed tunnels, we can perform CFD analysis using our advanced simulation tools to evaluate preliminary designs and allow for more focused wind tunnel testing to verify results and refine the final design.
