DART Announces FAA Approval Of Its Bell 505 Emergency Flotation System

Follows TCCA Approval Issued In Mid-February 2018

The FAA has certified DART’s Bell 505 Emergency Flotation System. With TCCA approval issued in mid-February of this year, the system, which is the first of its kind on the market, has started seeing its first deliveries.

With the strong, worldwide demand for the Bell 505, this TCCA, FAA and JCAB certified Float System is quickly becoming a key product for DART Aerospace.

 “The validation of the Bell 505 EFS by the FAA in a relatively short timeframe reflects the confidence that the authorities have in the design of this product and the substantiating documentation,” states David Shepherd, Vice President of Certification at DART Aerospace. “DART appreciates the support we received from Bell in developing this product.  We are happy to see that the Bell 505 aircraft is gaining momentum and look forward to bringing other products to market for the Bell 505 in the near future.”
