Having announced the completion of work on a first Boeing 787 head-of-state aircraft in May, Idair, the cabin systems joint venture between Lufthansa Technik and Panasonic Avionics, revealed this week at NBAA 2018 that it had carried out similar installations for a second BBJ 787. This included installation of an in-flight entertainment system, cabin management system and connectivity solution.
The aircraft was completed by Greenpoint Technologies in Moses Lake, Wash., for Kestrel Aircraft Management, and was displayed at EBACE 2016 in May. The aircraft has 16 VIP seats and each has controls for the cabin lighting, entertainment and communications that include mobile telephony and IP TV. The first 787 Idair worked on was completed by Associated Air Center in Dallas.
“We will continue our close collaboration with Greenpoint and customer representatives like Kestrel Aviation Management to ensure a best-in-class experience for our VIP customers,” said Dr. Wassef Ayadi, CEO of Idair.
