Aviointeriors and RUAG Aviation start
cooperation
Aviointeriors CEO Mr. Ermanno De Vecchi has
announced that the Latina-based seat manufacturer
had been selected by RUAG Aviation
to design and manufacture a brand new seat
for installation in the Dornier 228. RUAG
Aviation is also the manufacturer (OEM) of
the Dornier 228, a versatile aircraft for special
missions and passenger and cargo operations.
“This seat will be designed, qualified
manufactured and delivered to RUAG within
26 weeks. This partnership will enable passengers
of this commuter aircraft to utilize
a modern, comfortable seat that will have
substantial aesthetic and weight advantages
over the seats that are currently installed in
the Dornier aircraft. We at Aviointeriors took
on board the need for RUAG to have an extremely
short development phase and have
selected a dedicated team of engineers to
meet these requirements. We are extremely
pleased that we have been selected and look
forward to long relationship with RUAG and
their customers.”
