Curtiss-Wright Controls is pleased to announce that we will be exhibiting at Helitech International, next week in London. At booth N20 we will have on display our Multi Purpose Flight Recorder (MPFR), a product we’ve recently covered in a Case Study regarding its use on the AW139s. Highlights from this Case Study are –

The Platform
AW139 Multi-role Helicopter

The System
All data on-board the AW139 is processed by the Honeywell Primus Epic avionics suite
One of two main avionics units (MAUs), outputs an ARINC 573/717 data stream to the Multi-Purpose Flight Recorder (MPFR) supplied  by CWC-AE
The MPFR acts as a combined cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder (CVR/FDR)
Over 700 parameters captured.

The Results
100 percent positive data retrieval feedback
Time and money saved with fast, accessible accident data from a small, lightweight recorder
Customers receive easily accessible flight data

The Case Study also includes a quote from the Accident Investigator at AgustaWestland and it, along with images and the study in its entirety, can be provided up on request.

Stop by the Curtiss-Wright Controls booth, number N20, to learn more about this program and our MPFR.
