AES Gets Ready To REV Up The Piston Powerplant Biz
Wed, 26 Apr '06
Aircraft Engine Services (AES), Inc. has announced that it will be marketing the revolutionary V220 and V300T aircraft engines under the REV? brand.
"Since 1996, when we first began working on the concept for these piston aviation engines, there was a clear strategy for competing with the established players in the certified industry," said Luc de Gaspe Beaubien, Director of Operations for AES.
"As such, an established development procedure, including exhaustive flight test, was insisted upon for these engines. Today's announcement of the branding is yet another logical step on or path towards public availabilities of the REV V220 and V300T."
Set for certification in the third quarter of 2006 the REV V220 and V300T are currently undergoing testing and certification efforts at OEM manufacturers of certified piston aircraft.
"These launch partners will be instrumental in ensuring the product support organization is in place to support the REV V220 and V300T engines. Using the REV brand will help convey some of the key features and attributes of the revolutionary all aluminum FADEC controlled and PSRU equipped REV 220 and REV 300T," explained de Gaspe Beaubien.
With a propeller speed of 2000 RPM at WOT and some 1500 RPM in cruise the REV V200T and REV 300T can meet stringent European noise regulations, as well as forecasted emission standards for the next decades. For example, through the use of computer technology in their Engine Control Units, the REV 220 and REV 300T do not have to rely on the leaded aviation fuels as do competitive offerings.
"These features are revolutionary and truly differentiate the REV V200 and REV V 300T from their competitors" de Gaspe Beaubien said.
The REV branding, logo and identity will be officially unveiled at the July 2006 aviation gathering in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, known as the EAA's Air Venture 2006. The REV V220 and REV V300T's product certification schedule and projected market availabilities will also be announced at Air Venture 2006.
With roots dating back decades in General Aviation, AES is the marketing and product support entity for the V220 and V300T. The REV may be seen at booths 269 & 275 at Air Venture Oshkosh 2006.
AES-Aircraft Engine Services is the company marketing these.
