Working with AFD

Case Studies

We engaged AFD on the Human External Cargo (HEC) programme at a critical point when EASA had just begun to scrutinise our first of many STC applications for the Load Carrying System / Basket Type 1. At this time AHUK faced several technical challenges and simply put, AFD offered quick and effective support; working as a team with us to resolve some challenging technical problems, enabling confidence to be built between AHUK and EASA at panel level, and ultimately leading to a successful STC application.

“AFD was selected owing to their product knowledge and track record in delivering similar work to a high standard. AFD has always delivered on schedule and offer a competitive pricing model.”

Gary Wells - Chief Stress Engineer, Héroux-Devtek

“AFD provided a team of structural specialists that enabled the efficient and cost-effective delivery of our seat certification programmes. Their professionalism, dedication, and diligence built confidence with EASA and ultimately guided the certification plans towards successful outcomes.”
