A Few STC Programs

• STC supports electronic and materials fabrication for such NASA projects as the Small Aircraft Transportation System, the shuttle EVA IR Camera system for the Return to Flight Effort, and the Crew Exploration Vehicle mock-up and crash test projects.

• In 2005, STC was awarded the Electronic Fabrication Support (EFS) contract by LaRC which required ISO registration within 9 months of award. Because our systems were already compliant to the 1994 standard, updating to the 2000 standard and full registration was accomplished 3 months early with STC passing it’s August 2005 audit with no minor or major findings, a first for our auditor.

• STC Supports Advanced Avionics Design and Development for the LaRC Transport Research Including operation of two research labs which provide a high quality environment for Research Flight Systems development of the Center’s development of Simulation-to-Flight Capability.  We support the operations of the flight simulators through hardware and software configurations, which can be transitioned to the aircraft, and second, enable the integration and checkout of research systems prior to integration on the aircraft. -more-
