Flying Colours achieves STC for ADS-B OUT on Bombardier Challenger 300

Flying Colours Corp., the North American MRO, completions, and refurbishment company has successfully secured a Supplemental Type Certificate for ADS-B OUT for Bombardier Challenger 300 airframes, from the US-based FAA. The first Bombardier Challenger 300 was out fitted with the soon-to-be mandatory tracking system in November 2015, at its St. Louis facility. The STC will be submitted for validation by both Transport Canada and Europe’s EASA this year. The STC follows on from Flying Colours Corp. achieving an STC for Bombardier Challenger 604/605 aircraft types in October 2015, and expands the range of services it can offer to aircraft owners and operators. The awarding of the STC follows significant training and technology investment from Flying Colours Corp. over the last twelve months.
