StandardAero will provide custom solutions for integration and engineering services. Together the companies offer globally recognized capabilities in the helicopter market.
“Esterline is proud to be a StandardAero supplier of choice for innovative cockpit systems and avionics hardware solutions for these projects," said Michel Potvin, president, Esterline Avionics Systems.
