Merlinhawk India to Sell Powerline Detection System

White Plains, NY (October 15, 2010) — Safe Flight Instrument Corporation has partnered with Merlinhawk Aerospace Pvt. Ltd. for the marketing, sales and installation of Safe Flight’s Powerline Detection System (PDS) in India.

Merlinhawk will join a growing network of highly qualified international distributors of Safe Flight’s Powerline Detection System to meet an increasing global demand for PDS.

As a certified ISO 9001 company, Merlinhawk will also support technical data and the certification requirements for PDS with local authorities through its accreditations by the Directorate General of Aeronautical Quality Assurance (DGAQA), the Centre for Military Airworthiness and Certification (CEMILAC) and the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA).

Safe Flight’s Powerline Detection System has been FAA and EASA certified and is currently being operated world wide.  PDS is an extremely lightweight and passive system that alerts the aircraft pilot and crew when approaching an energized power line in a heads up attitude.  The system provides a visual and aural warning to the crew.  As the aircraft approaches the danger the aural warning intensifies allowing the pilot to avoid contact with the hazard altogether.
