Dowty Group has brought all six members of its aerospace portfolio to this year's NBAA show and all are making news, the company said.

Dowty Aerospace Yakima (DAY) won a contract to supply thrust attenuator actuators for the Cessna Citation CJ1 and CJ2 business jets that will replace the standard thrust reverser actuators and help achieve cost and weight savings. DAY also has been approved under ISO 14001, the international standard for environmental management systems.

Dowty Aerospace Los Angeles earned ISO 9001 status for its quality management systems. DALA, which manufactures hydraulics and actuation components, recently won a contract to design and produce actuators for the new ejector translator hushkit developed by Really Quiet LLC for retrofit on Gulfstream II and III aircraft.

Dowty Tubular Systems makes its debut at NBAA this year, bringing together Lewis & Saunders, a maker of rigid tubular assemblies, and Titeflex, which makes flexible hoses. It recently won a contract to supply all the rigid tubular systems on the Sino Swearingen SJ30-2.
UK-based Hamble Structures completed a long-term agreement to make a wide variety of composite and metallic empennage components for the Raytheon Hawker. The tailcone is on exhibit at Dowty's booth, #8446.
