Firan Technology Group Celebrates EASA Certification Milestone
Firan Technology Group Achieves EASA Certification for AFIRS Edge+
Firan Technology Group Corporation (TSX: FTG) has reached a significant achievement with the recent award of a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for its innovative AFIRS Edge+™ product. This certification by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) now allows for the deployment of this state-of-the-art technology on the Airbus A319/320/321 family of aircraft, marking a new chapter in aviation safety and operational efficiency.
The approval of the AFIRS Edge+ is a game-changer in the aviation industry, as it is set to facilitate the global rollout of FLYHT’s advanced 5G Wireless Quick Access Recorder (WQAR). This technology promises to modernize one of the aviation industry's most widely-used aircraft families, ensuring airlines can harness the benefits of real-time data for enhanced safety and operational efficiency.
Importance of the Certification
“The Edge+ approval for the Airbus family, alongside our previous Boeing 737 NG certification, sets the foundation for implementing the first 5G Wireless QAR plug-and-play solution around the globe. This is an essential part of our strategy to add value stemming from the FLYHT acquisition,” said Brad Bourne, President & CEO of FTG. The transition from outdated 2G and 3G systems to a truly advanced 5G platform ensures that airlines leverage reliable real-time aircraft data.
Enhanced Operational Capabilities
The AFIRS Edge+ replaces legacy WQAR systems that are approaching their end-of-life, particularly as older cellular networks phase out. As the first WQAR utilizing 5G technology, the Edge+ guarantees superb bandwidth and reliability needed to meet the advancing data demands of modern aviation—from predictive analytics to cost savings in ACARS usage.
With EASA’s stamp of approval, FTG is set to broaden its regulatory compliance across additional regions in the near future. This proactive approach is aimed at expanding market access to operators of the Airbus A319/320/321 globally, reflecting FTG’s commitment to being at the forefront of market needs.
