Cobham's Special Missions unit has partnered with defence software and systems engineering provider Acacia Systems to undertake a modification project for the Dash-8 surveillance aircraft in Adelaide.
The pilot, 31 and his passenger, just 18, were conducting powerline inspections near Canberra when the aircraft, VH-DLA, entered a spin on 13 April 2021.
The pilot of a Yak-52 warbird aircraft that crashed into the water near South Stradbroke Island in June 2019 was conducting low-level aerobatics at less than 500 feet before the crash, despite not being qualified to do so.
The 44-year-old amateur-built Jodel D11 crashed on a beach at Ball Bay, north-west of Mackay Airport in Queensland, on 24 December 2021, following an engine failure.
Cobham’s global parent company is reportedly seeking to sell off its Australian business, in a deal expected to be worth over $1 billion.
Cobham has welcomed its sixth Dash 8 Q400 into its fleet, ahead of its planned start of commercial services from mid-February. The new aircraft will support the operator's charter and FIFO operations from its Perth base.
