COVID-19 Update

INFORMATION

AQRD UPDATE 5/13/2020:

Together, we are facing a truly unprecedented situation. The global coronavirus pandemic is affecting all of our families, businesses, communities, and way of life. During this time, we wanted to provide an update on how we are approaching the situation at AQRD.

First and foremost, our hearts go out to those impacted directly and indirectly by the virus. Our thoughts are especially with those who are sick, to whom we extend our wishes for a full recovery. We are also truly inspired by the selfless healthcare workers around the world who are working tirelessly to care for people in need. Thank you to everyone who is currently positively serving our businesses and communities during this crisis.

Second, AQRD continues to remain focused on the health and safety of our employees, families, partners, and communities while continuing to provide the best service possible for our customers. AQRD is currently functioning to support our client's needs 24/7 through AQRD engineering, FAA 145 repair station, and military divisions.

We have fantastic teams at AQRD that are here for you. Our company will remain open for business and adjust to the changing situation as necessary.

As we go forward, we will be sure to keep you updated. We always value questions, ideas, and feedback so please reach out if you would like to discuss the ongoing situation further.

AQRD UPDATE 3/18/2020:

Our customers are the center of what we do. In light of the World Health Organization declaring COVID-19 a pandemic, our top priority is ensuring our customers, employees and communities are safe as the situation develops. We are keeping up with the guidance of the World Health Organization, CDC, and state and local authorities related to travel, quarantine, meetings, and events. We will continue to adjust our guidance accordingly.

AQRD cares deeply about our customers and the communities in which we conduct business. By working together as the COVID-19 situation continues to evolve, we are confident we can keep our team members, partners, customers, and their families and assets safe and protected. We wanted to let you know how we are proactively working on this daily and 24/7.

We have implemented new policies to maintain a safe and healthy environment for our team members and guests. Some of the new policies include restrictive travel guidelines, work-from-home initiatives, and a visitor questionnaire all guests will complete before accessing our physical locations. The questionnaire contains a simple set of questions that will help our team assess any possible limitations we may need to implement for individuals who accompany an aircraft and desire access to our facilities and people. While we appreciate having customers with us on-site and consider them a part of our extended team, the new policies will help ensure a safe and healthy environment at our company. The new plans will allow AQRD to stay focused on delivering high-quality products on schedule.

Our company will remain open for business and adjust to the situation as necessary.

As of right now our engineering teams, FAA 145 repair station, and military division are all fully functional and available 24/7.

We have plans and contingencies in place to ensure we maintain the service needs of all our customers. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to reach out to us at any time.

Thank you for being a valued partner of AQRD.

Sincerely,

ADS-B Compliant: Beechcraft Starships are ready for 2020

ADS-B Compliant: Beechcraft Starships are Ready for 2020

AQRD upgrades Beechcraft Starships to make them ADS-B compliant

Aerospace Quality Research and Development ("AQRD") has successfully developed the engineering, design, and installation needed to keep the Beechcraft Starship 2000 flying with the ADS-B 2020 mandate of compliance meeting the FAA regulations 14 CFR 91.225 and 14 CFR 91.22. The challenge in obtaining ADS-B compliance for the Starship included no available OEM support, no available support for the existing Collins AMS850 system, no cockpit panel real-estate for a panel or other mount solution, and no way to connect with the existing and no longer support Rockwell Collins AMS 850 integrated avionics processor and systems. This is a significant milestone for the Beechcraft Starship, as it will ensure that the Starship will be shared and enjoyed for decades to come. AQRD, using its in house development team and engineering expertise, developed a solution to be ADS-B IN/OUT compliant with updated cockpit technology and modern-day GPS/transponders/1090ES technology. AQRD sees this as a milestone in its development approach to engineering solutions coupled with applications engineering (on aircraft solutions). This solution not only brings ADSB out to meet the FAA NEXTGEN mandate for the Starship as a whole, but AQRD also engineered and installed technology that brings ADS-B/FISB data specifically into the Starship cockpit. This enables the starship to operate for the next 30+ years using modern and updated technology. This is a first in helping solve the continuing challenge of keeping aircraft flying into the future…

AQRD is using this method of engineering design (integration approach in partnership with select systems manufacturers) and applying it to other platforms and solutions in the commercial, corporate, and military space. AQRD will be using the operations-based design approach applying it to many of its other current and future customers challenges with fleet and aircraft sustainment and obsolescent issues. AQRD is proud to keep the Beechcraft Starship flying along with the Dassault F1 Mirage, Northrop F5 and Lockheed F16.

AQRD is a company that prides itself on innovation, quality and speed. We aim to "Keep 'EM Flying"!
