“We awarded the monument stress analysis to AFD owing to their extensive experience and knowledge in analysing this kind of structure and their pro-active approach to resolving technical difficulties often encountered in the design phase. The added value of using AFD was their pre-existing relationship with our customer (the DOA) enabling AFD to compile, check and verify the structural substantiation.”

“AFD was able to bring extensive experience in composite design and structural testing to a complex programme. During the test campaign, the AFD CVE/Witness diligently carried out their duty to ensure test article conformity, and to execute the test in accordance with the Test Plan intent. Post‐test, AFD was able to process the results and deliver the required documents without delay, enabling GVH to receive the Supplemental Type Certificate in a timely manner.”

“AFD was engaged from start to finish in our Taipan Gun Mount programme, providing reliable specialist support in the Structures topic. During both the prototype and serial production phases, AFD supported both NOVA in solving complex strength issues, preparing the ground for a successful certification campaign. AFD offer a Turn-Key Structures solution for EASA DOAs by providing a team of experienced Stress Engineers backed up by independent Compliance Verification Engineers (CVEs).”
