As a subsidiary of Zodiac Aerospace, Heath Tecna has become a member of the Zodiac Airline Cabin Interiors division, continuing a long tradition of providing retrofit and BFE linefit cabin interiors, as well as integral services, to airlines and aircraft lessors. The Zodiac Airline Cabin Interiors division belongs to the Zodiac Cabin & Structures segment, whose central mission is to design, certify, manufacture, and support the world’s most innovative aircraft interiors and composite structures for new and aged passenger aircraft.

Moving forward, Heath Tecna will utilize the Zodiac Airline Cabin Interiors brand in our marketing communications, shut down the Heath Tecna website, and present our offerings through the Zodiac Aerospace website. Later in the year, when the transition is nearly complete, we will make a follow-up annoucement so that customers, job applicants, and news organizations can be redirected to our new home online.

Heath Tecna launched our YouTube channel today and our very first piece of content was provided by our Aftermarket Services group. They recently collaborated with Pixel Bokeh to produce a video about genuine Heath Tecna parts and how important it is to them to provide great service to our customers. The video also shows an inside look into their world of 145 Repair Station work and AS9120 spares distribution.

In addition, Aftermarket Services worked with brand agency Studiothink to produce a new brochure and website dedicated to promoting the services and components that they offer to the aerospace marketplace.

We'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved, who assisted Aftermarket Services in their latest marketing efforts, including Pixel Bokeh, Studiothink, Zodiac Aerospace, and of course, the terrific employees at Heath Tecna.

A project team from Austrian Airlines recently made several visits to Heath Tecna in September and October, to commence with a preliminary design review of a complex reconfiguration program for the airline’s international fleet of B767s and B777s. In June of this year, it was announced that Austrian Airlines awarded Heath Tecna with a large program to provide integration services and cabin interior products to modify 10 aircraft.

Heath Tecna’s Engineering, Program Management, and Certification teams worked very hard to ensure all of the necessary research and preliminary drawings were presented to the Austrian team during the PDR, and we appreciate everyone’s time and dedication at HT in meeting this important milestone. We enjoyed the visit from our Vienna customers and look forward to seeing the program continue through the critical design review in early 2012, as well as meeting our production schedule to deliver reconfiguration kits in the 2nd and 3rd quarters of 2012.
