Nine Qualified Installation Centers Approved For Modifications
BRS Aerospace has established a nationwide Cessna Parachute System Authorized Installation Network to handle whole aircraft parachute installations on the sizeable Cessna 172 and 182 single-engine piston powered fleets.
"The network of factory-approved installation centers are all equipped and qualified to install the BRS Aerospace whole aircraft parachute recovery systems in 172s and 182s providing an unprecedented level of safety for legacy aircraft and newer models," said BRS Aerospace President Enrique Dillon. "BRS has the only FAA/EASA certified aircraft parachute systems for Cessna 172/182s available today."
The level of safety provided by the ballistic recovery system for owners and operators of Cessna 172s and 182s is comparable to a similar system on the world's best-selling single-engine piston powered aircraft and every new certified aircraft with six seats or less under development today.
The installation centers are:
- RDD Enterprises, Redmond OR
- Mather Aviation, Hayward, CA
- Sierra Hotel Aero, Inc., South St. Paul. MN
- Sierra Hotel Aero, Inc., Winterset, IA
- Tennessee Aircraft Services, Inc., Jackson, TN
- Goodrich Aviation, Johnson City, NY
- Aircare Aviation Services & Support, Rocky Mount, NC
- Air Orlando Sales, Inc., Orlando, FL
- Propel Aviation Sales & Services, LLC, Miami, FL
Installation kits for the Cessna 182 Skylane are $17,500 and the Cessna 172 installation kit is $15,500, plus installation fees. The BRS system is approved for Cessna 182s manufactured from 1964 and newer, and Cessna 172s manufactured in 1966 and newer. Listed below are qualified installation centers covering the United States from coast to coast.
