Leading with Diversity: Perspectives from ANA Certified MBEs
In today's business landscape, diversity isn't just a buzzword; it's a strategic imperative. As companies strive to remain competitive and relevant in an ever-evolving marketplace, embracing diversity isn't just a moral obligation—it's a pathway to innovation and growth. One significant way that businesses can amplify their commitment to diversity is by partnering with ANA Certified Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs). These certified entities bring a wealth of perspectives, talents, and opportunities to the table, enriching the business ecosystem and driving collective success.

Episode 360 - NOTAMS SatNav?
Join Armando, Carlos, Matt and Nev for this week's programme.
In this week's show fights break out on a United Airlines flight and it's nothing to do with Brian Coleman, one airline receives a 5 Star Covid rating and a certain airline sells rather a lot of airline meals.
In the military, lots of planes are falling apart all over the sky with pilots ejecting left right & centre , and a F35 shoots itself in the foot, and Cambridge's Marshall Aerospace is expecting some changes in the near future regarding its C-130J contracts.
In the Plane Truths we're learning about Plane Evacuations and it's the final part in our series where Captain Nick talks to George Lee MBE about his incredible career.

Aerobility to Expand Fleet with Former MOD Vigilant T1 Gliders
The MOD’s Defence Equipment and Support (DE&S)
organisation has sold 63 decommissioned Vigilant T1 aircraft to
Aerobility, an UK-based charity which provides flying experiences
to those with disabilities and injured ex-military personnel.
The first batch of 10 motor gliders will be modified and
refurbished by German company GROB Aircraft SE – the original manufacturer and Design Authority – to meet civil certification
standards.
The remaining aircraft will be engineered and
recertified in the UK, where the charity has identified a
qualified engineering partner in Southern Sailplanes, based in
West Berkshire.
Hampshire-based Aerobility will initially
more than double its fleet with eight Vigilants thanks to a grant
from the Department for Transport (DfT); meaning they will be able
to help about 2,600 people into the air every year compared to
1,000 currently.
Clive Walker, head of the Defence Equipment Sales
Authority (DESA) in DE&S, said, “I am very
pleased to see the RAF Vigilant T1 gliders move on to a new lease
of life, in particular supporting the excellent work of Aerobility
in creating flying experiences and opportunities for those who
might otherwise never get the chance to fly.”
Glider
modifications will include new engines, propellers and refurbished
cockpits, and the charity hopes the first glider will be ready to
fly in the summer of 2021.
Aircraft that aren’t used for
flights will be refurbished and sold to generate revenue for the
charity, pay for the ongoing costs of their operational fleet and
help them branch out into other parts of the British Isles.
Aerobility’s CEO,
Mike Miller-Smith
MBE, said,
“Acquiring these aircraft will help us transform the lives of an
even greater number of disabled people by giving them the
unrivalled sense of freedom through the magic of flight. We are
extremely grateful to the Ministry of Defence, Department for
Transport and our various partners for supporting us in this
ambitious project. Not only will it help us build
capacity for our future operations, it will enable us to expand
the charity to support more disabled people and to do so at
additional locations around the UK.”
The sale will
create four full-time engineering jobs, one project management
role and one administration position at the charity. They will
also need a full-time co-ordinator and a part-time flying
instructor, with all positions being filled by candidates with a
disability where possible.

Airbus A330-800 Receives Type Certification from EASA and FAA
The Airbus A330-800 has received joint Type
Certification from the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and
the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
The aircraft’s certification flight-test campaign
was performed by aircraft MSN1888, which completed the programme
in 370 flight test hours and 132 flights since its first flight in
November 2018.
The A330-800 is powered by Rolls-Royce Trent 7000 engines
and features a
new 3D-optimised wing and new Sharklets made up of lighter composite
materials. Airbus says that together, these advances result in a
"significant reduction in fuel consumption".
Certified initially with a maximum take-off weight
(MTOW) of 242 tonnes for a range capability of up to 7,500
nautical miles, the A330-800 will typically seat 220 to 260
passengers in three classes, or up to 406 travellers in a
single-class high-density configuration.
To date the A330neo
Family has won 337 firm orders from 22 operators.

Royal Thai Air Force Orders Six Airbus H135 Military Training Helicopters
The Royal Thai Air Force has signed an order with
Airbus for six H135 military training helicopters, as part of its
pilot training enhancement programme.
The very first military training helicopters ever
ordered by the Royal Thai Air Force, these new twin-engine H135s
will be utilised for an array of training missions, including ab-initio
flight training. They will complement the Royal Thai Air Force’s
existing H225M fleet, bringing its Airbus fleet to 18 units.
“We are extremely honoured by the Royal Thai Air
Force’s decision to expand its training fleet with the H135. The
FAA IFR- certified H135 is well regarded by military customers
worldwide for its versatility, excellent performance and
reliability, which explains our full confidence that this
helicopter is the perfect platform for the Air Force’s training
needs,” said Fabrice Rochereau, Head of Sales, Asia Pacific at
Airbus Helicopters. “We look forward to the H135 enhancing the
training capability of the Royal Thai Air Force from 2021 onwards,
where every one of its pilots will learn to fly a helicopter
through the H135 trainer, and smoothly transit to more complex
helicopters.”
Equipped with Airbus Helicopters’ Helionix avionics suite, the Royal Thai Air Force’s H135s will
each be configured with two external cameras, providing pilots
with a 360-degree view of the external environment, tactical systems and the Euronav7 moving map
to
