Description

The origins of ALR are in conceptual design of aircraft- and aerospace-related products such as light weight fighters, trainer aircraft and -systems. Gradually, the scope has been extended to aerospace project assessment and management, marketing and sales support. Finally, specific aerospace engineering services are offered. See reference projects. ALR's characteristics are the multi-disciplinary approach.

Concept Development

Initiation of a concept development by conducting in-depth market and requirements analyses, feasibility studies, detailed conceptual design and development.

Aerospace Project and Programs Analysis, support in FSD

Installation of a Full Scale Development with definition phase, support prototype development and flight testing. Specific engineering and management tasks. Analysis of aircraft development programs (lead of integrated teams)

Support of European Aerospace Activities

Participation in European aerospace activities (support of ASD seminars and strategic projects, membership activities in the SAIG Swiss Aerospace Industry Group, membership activities in the CEAS Council of European Aerospace Societies)

Today's specific non-restricted projects:

  • Flight Data Registration: recording of aircraft data (ie. GPS, engine data, fuel management, voice etc.) and real time transmitting over the globe to any point in the world (ACARS, AFIRS) Contact:

  • Marketing & Sales support in specific country
  • Basic trainer a/c proposal
  • Multiple-lift transport concept
  • Engineering and systems integration / modification (i.e. cabin and galley layout support, In-Flight Entertainment IFE evaluation & assessment)
