DART Helicopter Services is pleased to announce that their affiliated partner, DART Aerospace Ltd., has received FAA approval for their Safety Enhancement Kits for the Medium Bell aircraft model types. Transport Canada approval has been previously received and EASA approval is currently pending.

DART Safety Enhancement Kits increase the operational safety of Medium Bell aircraft. Each sub-kit may be installed independently or in conjunction. All Safety Enhancement equipment is designed to address specific safety requirements including illumination and equipment monitoring. Where applicable, kits provide compliance with JAR-OPS 3 requirements.

The DART Safety Enhancement Kit includes the following:

Flashlights Kit:
This kit provides Flashlights for each crew station mounted to the cockpit pedestal or the optional Mapbox. Bright, long lasting, shock resistant LED light.

Mapbox Kit:
This kit provides storage of maps etc. used during the flight. Sturdy metal design with scratch resistant powder coat finish.

Exit Illumination Kit:
This kit provides photo luminescent strips that are mounted around each cargo door emergency passenger exit. Simple installation, no electrical hook up or wiring.

Pitot Heat Monitor Kit:
This kit provides monitoring and annunciation for the pilot and co-pilot pitot heaters. The pitot heat fail annunciator illuminates when the pitot heater is not producing heat to alert the flight crew to this condition.

Standby Attitude Battery Monitor Kit:
This kit provides monitoring and annunciation for the standby attitude battery. The standby attitude battery annunciator illuminates when the standby attitude is running on battery power to alert the flight crew of the condition.

“DART is adding the Med Bell Safety Enhancement kits to our growing list of products designed specifically to improve the safety of the aircraft, crew and passengers. These are cost effective and simple modifications that will increase the operational safety of any Medium Bell aircraft operating in any region of the world.” Quote Bill Beckett, General Manager, Dart Aerospace Ltd.
