Rack and Workstation Design
AEVEX provides custom interior modifications rapidly and efficiently, using blocks of pre-engineered and fabricated designs. We have a variety of modules that fit together to provide a custom solution with minimal schedule and cost. They can also be reconfigured as the mission evolves. All modules are forward / backward compatible and can ship in off-the-shelf environmentally hardened cases. This facilitates fully integrated spares, roll-on/roll-off capability, short-term flight test, and phased system expansion.
• Customized system architecture • Custom rack designs • Custom workstations
• Army Aviation Engineering Directorate (AED) and FAA / TCCA-approved flight test processes
• Master Parameter List Development • Flight Test Instrumentation Planning & Installation • NIST-traceable Calibration • Post-flight Data Reduction and Processing • Flight Test Engineer (FTE) Training Software • Life Cycle Management and Extension

Airborne Data Acquisition Systems
AEVEX provides data acquisition systems (DAQs) that are fully customizable and scalable to meet customers’ specific flight test needs. Our baseline DAQ, analysis, replay, and review system is called Mission Commander (MC) Control, which features multiple data acquisition channels that allow for a customizable and expandable solution compatible with any aircraft configuration. MC Control is a modular and configurable baseline, including multiple input/outputs (for both standard and non-standard devices), which provides the ability to interface and leverage existing systems on the aircraft and communicate data across buses. MC Control is intended to support the collection of flight and usage data on the airframe and power plants to support the management of systems. Customers use MC Control and its derivatives to monitor and trend the structural integrity and fatigue associated with airframe modifications. Derivative systems that AEVEX can provide include Wing Life Monitoring Systems (WLMS), Health and Usage Monitoring (HUMS), Pressure Management Systems, and other custom systems. AEVEX DAQ systems are capable of interfacing with: • Flight Data Recorders • Cockpit Voice and Video Recorders • Configuration Specific Transducers (stress, strain, vibe,
acceleration, temp, flow, air flow, fuel flow, etc.) • Video and Audio (MISB and KLV compliant) • Satellite Communications (SATCOM) • Data Links and Communications Systems • Mission Systems and Payloads • Non-Collocated Instrumentation (air, ground, sea, space)
