This project, sponsored by the Italian government, required
the purchase and subsequent operation of a Learjet 35A. Our Research & Development
department, in cooperation with a number of different engineering
companies, developed a "special mission" modification package,
which took many months to complete.
The
airplane is equipped with a FLIR camera, dual mapping cameras installation,
a video camera, a scanner, a SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar),
and several recording units.
Our flight department flight tested the airplane for each certification
and supervised the installation of the equipment.
We
have also been in charge of the subsequent EASA certification of the aircraft and its modifications and installations.
This aircraft is now capable to fulfill practically any surveying
mission possible; its navigation equipment (it has a 12-channel
GPS, a detachable differential GPS, an IRS, and an Universal flight
management system, plus GPWS and CVR) allows worldwide all-weather operation.
The experience gained by our company during this process has proven
extremely important not only for the success of this project, but
it has given us a very broad knowledge of the aviation world and
its many aspects that we have been able to apply to the every day
business of assisting our clients.
