Offers Three-And-Four-Point Kits

DART Helicopter Services announced this week its affiliated partner, DART Aerospace Ltd., earned EASA approval for its 3-Point/ 4-Point Shoulder Harness Kits for Bell 205A/A1, 205B, 212, 214B/B1, 412/412EP model aircraft. These kits have been previously approved by both Transport Canada and the FAA.

DART'S 3-Point Shoulder Harness Kits with Inertia Reels are available in two different styles. The Integrated Kit (shoulder harness joined to lap belt) has been specifically designed for rappel operations and has a single point quick release mechanism, while the Independent Kit (shoulder harness separates from lap belt) incorporates a distinctive large metal to metal push button release mechanism.

DART'S latest 4-Point Shoulder Harness Kit provides left and right shoulder straps as well as a replacement lap belt that features a secure 4 point metal to metal lever-style buckle arrangement for all passenger seating positions.

"DART has worked closely with the US Forest Service and other customers to develop and certify a series of restraint systems that are TSO-C114 certified and speak to customer's operation and maintenance requirements," said Bill Beckett, General Manager of DART Aerospace Ltd.
