Microtecnica secures Turkish contract

17 June 2010 • In News

Microtecnica has been selected by Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) to supply the environmental control system for Turkey’s new Hurkus two-seat trainer aircraft, the first trainer aircraft designed and built in Turkey.

Microtecnica’s work involves designing and manufacturing a complete environmental control system for the new aircraft. The system will use energy-saving technology by taking advantage of bleed air from the Hurkus’ turboprop engine to pressurise, ventilate and heat the cabin, while a separate vapour cycle compressor will provide sufficient cooling to the aircraft as required.

Commenting on the contract win, chief executive of Microtecnica Alan Bean said: “The Hurkus is a landmark project for the Turkish Air Force and one that we are extremely proud to be involved in. The award of the contract to handle the development of the entire environmental control system is a testament to Microtecnica’s experience in developing such flight-critical components.”
