Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is a system broadcasting, without the need for action from the pilot or any request from ATC, that provides an enhanced set of aircraft surveillance data to Air Traffic Management (and potentially to other airplanes)
Overview
Fokker Services offers a certified solution for the integration of Satellite-Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) and Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), supporting modern navigation, surveillance, and performance-based operations. This upgrade ensures compliance with global mandates while delivering operational efficiency and precision.
Localizer Performance with Vertical Guidance (LPV) enables precision-like approaches down to CAT I minima—without requiring any ground-based ILS infrastructure. LPV relies on Space-Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) such as EGNOS (Europe), WAAS (U.S.), or other regional systems. This makes it an ideal upgrade for operators seeking improved accessibility, operational flexibility, and compliance with evolving navigation mandates.

Fokker Services has joined forces with Navtech, Jepessen and Dynamicsource AB, leading providers of flight operations solutions, and developed an EFB solution for iPad® installation that may revolutionize the way we navigate our skies. Technology moves quickly, and at Fokker Services it is our policy to stay ahead of the game. We design and launch more than 300 aircraft modifications every year, believing that even an already functioning product can be improved on. In recent years Apple has captured the hearts of the consumer with their innovative thinking, whilst Navtech represent quality and credibility within the aviation industry. Combined with the history and experience at Fokker, the development of such an innovative yet simple solution felt like a natural progression. Service providers today are under a lot of pressure to meet growing demands. Products must be efficient, safe, cost effective, user and environmentally friendly; Our EFB installation is ticking all the boxes and is available for most aircraft types, including Airbus, Boeing, ATR, Bombardier Challenger & CRJ Family, Embraer, Fokker and others.
Over 1300 installations and upgrades have been ordered
The Traffic alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) has been introduced in order to reduce the risk of mid-air collisions or near mid-air collisions between aircraft. When TCAS II version 7.1 is implemented the probability of mid-air collisions will be reduced significantly. *
The introduction of TCAS change 7.1 software is available for Fokker 50, Fokker 70 and Fokker 100 aircraft as well as for other types of aircraft like Airbus A318, A319, A320, A321, Boeing 737 series, 757, 767, Bombardier Dash 8 and CRJ. (* source: www.eurocontrol.int)
Automatic Dependent Surveillance- Broadcast (ADS-B) is the replacement and augmentation of RADAR-based aircraft surveillance technology. With ADS-B, the surveillance of aircraft does no longer rely on RADAR ground stations, but on aircraft based GPS receivers. Aircraft equipped with ADS-B broadcast their precise position and velocity data, as well as altitude and supportive information automatically and with no pilot or external input to ATC or to other aircraft.
The above listed EASA STC has been validated or approved by the following aviation authority agencies:
FAA (ST04266NY, Date of issue: 2018/11/06)
ANAC (2019S08-17, Date of issue: 2019/08/08)
TCAS 7.1 upgrade on A320 family.
This STC covers almost all existing TCAS premod configuration with Collins, Honeywell and ACSS products.
The 1st FAA Certified LED Anti-Collision Light for Commercial Aircraft
Dependability, Weight Savings and Inventory Reduction
The Talon Aerospace anti-collision centerline/fuselage strobe light is designed to replace all incandescent based centerline lights installed on Boeing, Airbus, McDonnell/Douglas, Embraer, Bombardier and other regional aircraft.
During retrofit the operator will purchase an install kit, which includes an adaptor and harness assembly. On airframes that have accessibility provisions inside the interior the upper centerline light allows removal from inside the cabin. The harness and adaptor will last the lifetime of the airframe.
Talon and Proponent
Proponent is the exclusive global distributor of all Talon Aerospace products. This relation provides customers with the latest generation of LED lights.
Proponent is the new identity representing Kapco Global and Avio-Diepen as one united company, and the unique capabilities that the new organization brings to the aerospace market. With extensive experience in supporting the MRO, OEM and airline markets, our organization offers innovative inventory and supply chain management solutions to OEM and aftermarket customers.
S65-8262-12: All metal communications antenna.
Light weight, low drag in a rugged design package.
Resistant to erosion and impact. DC grounded to provide lightning protection, eliminates "P" static. Hermetically sealed. The antenna is 25% shorter and 30% lighter than the S65-8262-2, but keeps the identical mounting footprint. Other models available with optional internal low pass filtering system to prevent VHF interference to the Global Positioning System (GPS). Total harmonic attenuation greater than 80 dB.
ADS-B Out is an airspace requirement and already required in many parts of the world. A more stringent version of the ADS-B Out mandate in Europe (SESAR program) since December 2020 and in the USA (NextGen program) since January 2020. The mandates in Europe and the USA require a version 2 (DO-260B) ATC Mode-S Transponder as well as a more capable GNSS Sensor.
