Transport Canada Certifies Dart Screw-In Windshield For Bell 206

Kit Allows For Quick Windshield Replacement Or Removal

Transport Canada has certified the first ever Screw-in Windshield Kit for Bell 206A/B/L/L1/L3/L4 model aircraft. Dart Helicopter Services announced the certification award Sunday.

The New DAS Screw-in Windshield Modification Kit allows the operator to replace the existing OEM windshield retainers with quick change out retainers.  While the OEM retainers are riveted in place and are difficult and time consuming to replace, the DAS kit provides durable retainers that are screwed in place and that can be easily removed to allow for quick windshield replacement or removal.  After initial installation of the modification kit, windshields can be removed or installed in less than 2 hours per side.

The kit is compatible with OEM, AAI and Tech Tool windshields

"The convenience of being able to change out a windshield in the less than two hours means that every operator should be ordering this kit whenever they need to change a windshield,” said Bill Beckett, VP Canadian Operations, Dart Aerospace. “Customers have been asking for this for a while and we are pleased to provide them with a solution.”
 
FAA and EASA approvals are currently pending.
