GVH to supply hoist light for HATS
GVH Aerospace will design, manufacture and supply a hoist light for Boeing Defence Australia’s Helicopter Aircrew Training System (HATS), the company announced on 11 July.
The hoist light will be used for night hoisting training to provide aircrew with adequate illumination to carry out hoisting operations safely by illuminating the area directly under the aircraft.
The product complies with the Australian Civil Aviation Safety Regulations requirements for hoisting operations. GVH Aerospace has also carried out the EASA certification flight test using G-NSYS helicopter.
The Boeing HATS programme provides the Australian Defence Force with helicopter aircrew training.
