Deutsche Aircraft has contracted Jaivel Aerospace to update and develop design and manufacturing standards for the 40-seater D328eco regional turboprop. This follows a successful pilot programme created by the Deutsche Aircraft and Jaivel Aerospace teams, based in Germany, the United Kingdom, and India. The goal of this collaboration is to create comprehensive standards and specifications for the D328eco, leveraging modern design and manufacturing practices, while ensuring compliance with global aerospace standards.
Vipul Vachhani, Founder and CEO of Jaivel Aerospace, expressed the company’s pride in being part of the Deutsche Aircraft D328eco programme, attributing the success to the collaboration between the Deutsche Aircraft and Jaivel teams in developing the standards and specification framework, which will be implemented across the entire D328eco programme. He highlighted that, building on the strong track record of the D328®, the D328eco is well-positioned to deliver optimal seat-mile costs, along with improved utilisation and reliability within its class.
Nico Neumann, COO at Deutsche Aircraft, stated, “We look forward to further collaboration with Jaivel Aerospace on the update and, where required, new development of design and manufacturing standards for the D328eco programme. The extension of the contract is based on a successful pilot programme created by both teams. India is a key market in the APAC region for Deutsche Aircraft, and this collaboration represents another commitment to India and the ‘Make in India’ initiative.”
Deutsche Aircraft utilises the latest technologies and best practices to ensure the D328eco achieves the highest standards of reliability, efficiency, and sustainability.
