IAC AVIATION RELOCATES AERO-ENGINE TEST FACILITY FOR ITALIAN AIR FORCE
IAC Aviation is undertaking the relocation of one of the Italian Air Force’s RB199 aero-engine Test Facilities. It was originally designed and built by IAC on a modular basis to support this type of operational redeployment requirement. IAC Aviation is global leader in aero-engine testing for many of the world’s military and civil aircraft fleets.
All the Italian Air Force’s Tornado aircraft engines are kept in optimum condition through testing in their IAC provided test facilities to keep their fleet in a state of active readiness.
The project involves decommissioning the facility and then recommissioning it in its new location. Completion will involve hack running and calibration runs during November 2007.
Nigel Spencer, IAC Aviation Product Support Manager, who is heading the IAC team said: “We are pleased with the confidence that the customer has in the facility to require it to be relocated and undertake a new lease of life”
The relocation project will be completed in approximately three months from decommissioning to being reinstated as fully operational again.
IAC are a global leader in the supply of new, refurbishments and support of Aero-engine test facilities for most aircraft (both rotary and fixed wing) types.
