Duxford, Helitech 2009 - Stand 307

SES will be taking part in the Helitech 2009 exhibition at the Imperial War Museum Duxford, Cambridgeshire in September, from Tuesday 22nd to Thursday 24th.

Helitech is Europe's largest dedicated helicopter exhibition, and with the number of helicopter installations of SES recorders now well into the hundreds, we will be delighted to meet our many current and prospective customers there.

We will be showing some of our most recent airborne rugged processor technology, in addition to our many data recorders already familiar in helicopter installations. Processors include high performance developments from the S3DP-F, while helicopter-installed recorders on show will include the 2-channel video S3DR-F+ and 3-channel cockpit voice recorder S3DR-CVR. Helicopter engine leasing companies will be interested in our Engine Monitoring Unit for long-term usage logging.

Helitech 2009 takes place at The Imperial War Museum Duxford, UK. During the exhibition, Helitech visitors also benefit from free admission to the museum. Duxford is a fully operating airfield, so why not fly your helicopter into site free of charge during show hours!

Come visit us in the main hall at Stand 307. Contact us at info@sesltd.com for further details.

Le Bourget, 15 -19 June 2009. Hall 6 Stand A29

Specialist Electronics Services Ltd will be celebrating 100 years of Air Shows at Le Bourget! In association with our representative in France, JTELEC SA, SES will be exhibiting at the Salon du Bourget, Paris, from June 15th to 19th, 2009. We will be joining over 2000 trade exhibitors from across the world, and from all areas of the Aerospace industry.

We will be taking this opportunity to show our new S3DR-F+ solid state data recorder, and its multi-channel video counterpart, the MVDR, a powerful and flexible mission recorder with an all-new, intuitive front-panel user interface as well as extensive remote control capability. Look out for some of our new rugged processor units: S3DP-F for aircraft use and the new powerful multi-platform S3DP-V. You can also see the tiny S3DR-CVR cockpit voice recorder, hundreds of which are now installed in military helicopter fleets.

The event will include presentations and demonstrations ranging from current civil aircraft such as the Airbus 380 and military aircraft including Eurofighter, F16 and F18 Hornet, to historic ikons such as the Boeing B17 G Flying Fortress, De Havilland DH100 Vampire and Spitfire. Look out too for the SE 5A - originally built a few miles from SES at the Royal Aircraft Factory from early 1917.

Innovation by SES provides enhanced features, wins MOD competition

March 2009 - Specialist Electronics Services Ltd (SES), a leading designer and manufacturer of rugged data recorders, recording media and data reconstruction software has been selected and is under contract to UK MOD to supply 160 Crash Survivable Aircraft Cockpit Voice Recorders for the Lynx Mks 3, 7, 8 and 9 Helicopters.

Black box style CVRs are as important in the investigation of accidents and incidents in military aircraft as in civil aircraft, but not all fleets have them fitted as standard. Some small fixed- and rotary wing aircraft, and many military aircraft are still excluded from the mandatory fit of these devices, although where possible in the UK cockpit voice recorders are installed in military aircraft as part of a Duty of Care policy.

This important win for SES takes the Company decisively into the world of crash-survivable, rugged data recorders conforming to the EUROCAE ED112 and TSO123 standard. Our tender offer impressed Lynx Integrated Project Team with its technical innovations as well as exceeding the must-have certification elements required in the tender. We are delighted that SES has been able to offer this state of the art, certified solution to win such an important contract for the added security of U.K. airborne armed forces.

The contract was awarded on 3 March 2009 and deliveries are scheduled for 2010.
