Structural Monitoring Systems Plc provided an update on the first installation of the company's CVMTM sensor kits on Delta's aircraft at the AAR facility in Oklahoma in the United States last week. The installation took place in front of representatives from Delta Airlines, Boeing, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Anodyne Electrical Manufacturing Corp. (AEM) ahead of the FAA's consideration of the relevant Boeing Service Bulletin.

This installation follows the successful fitting of CVMTM sensor kits in 21 Delta aircraft more than 12 months ago which have shown to have performed extremely well, as expected. Activities undertaken in tandem with the installation and testing include the revamping of Boeing's Service Bulletin drafts and associated documents with Boeing's ongoing focus now on preparation for the Boeing Structures Safety Council Meeting scheduled for March 10.
