Fort Worth, Texas-based GDC Technics (Booth B21), an authorized FAA and EASA MRO for Boeing and Airbus aircraft, has announced the completion and delivery of two VVIP Boeing B787s to an unnamed head-of-state customer. Both aircraft are finished with VVIP cabins, integrating connectivity, vision, and television technologies throughout the interior and exterior of the aircraft.

"These Boeing 787 deliveries are a testimony to the success of our strategy focusing on developing new, innovative, engineering, and production techniques. Our commitment is to ensure that the cabins that we engineer and build match the sophistication of the next-generation aircraft we install them in," said GDC chairman Mohammed Alzeer. "We were able to achieve 20 percent weight reductions, providing our client with an operational advantage and fuel savings throughout the life of the aircraft."

Both aircraft are equipped with satcom and satellite TV antennas, as well as forward-looking, quad, and downward zoom cameras. Their cabins were delivered with a sound interface level (SIL) of 47.5 dB, much quieter than a typical cabin in flight, and additional humidification systems to enhance the passenger experiences during long-haul flights.

"GDC has and will continue to pioneer the way for next-generation aircraft and has mastered the engineering to do so, alongside our subsidiary GDC Engineering, who partnered with Boeing on the development of the 787," said Brad Foreman, CEO of the company.

Foreman recently announced GDC's new ownership structure and shared strategic vision with partners Oriole Capital Group, Trive Capital, and MAZ Aviation. The partnership is designed to help move the company into new markets such as commercial and military modifications, communication and avionics upgrades, structural modifications, and support services.
