Wed, 08 Feb 2012 00:23:00 +0000

Leading Platform for Satellite Broadband Delivers Unprecedented Capacity Distribution Capability to Assure Internet Access to Rural and Remote Australia

Space Systems/Loral (SS/L) (NASDAQ: LORL), the world's leading provider of commercial satellites, today announced that it has been awarded a contract to provide two high throughput communications satellites that will be used to deliver high speed broadband service to rural and remote areas of Australia. The satellites will be operated by NBN Co Limited (NBN Co), which was established to implement the Australian government policy initiative of providing access to high speed broadband to every household and business in the country via an integrated national network that will utilize fiber, wireless and satellite technologies.

"We are honored to be a part of the Australian government's initiative to provide universal broadband service to all of its citizens," said John Celli, president of Space Systems/Loral. "Today, access to the internet is crucial for education, safety, and economic development. Satellite is a highly cost-effective solution for providing high-speed connectivity over broad geographic areas and the Australian government has demonstrated visionary thinking in looking to satellite as one of the three chosen technologies to deliver service to every part of the nation."

Space Systems/Loral has built more satellites for broadband communications than any other manufacturer, and has built the world's highest capacity broadband satellites which deliver more than 100 gigabits per second throughput. The two satellites, NBN Co 1A and 1B, are both Ka-band, high-throughput broadband satellites that use multiple spot beams in an advanced design that tailors capacity to Australia's vastly distributed population. When launched in 2015, the satellites will provide service to some of the most remote places in Australia, as well as its coastal islands and external territories including Norfolk Island, Cocos Island, Christmas Island and Macquarie Island in the Antarctic.

"This announcement is a significant step towards reducing the digital divide between Australians living in urban areas and those living in the most geographically isolated regions. Rural and remote communities can now look forward to receiving enhanced broadband connectivity that will assist them in accessing the types of business, health, education and government services that people in metropolitan areas take for granted, " said Mike Quigley, chief executive officer of NBN Co. "We selected Space Systems/Loral to design and build our satellites because of its leadership in delivering the world's largest and most powerful satellites, and its long history of success in providing satellites for broadband service."

The satellites for NBN Co are based on the SS/L 1300 platform which leads the industry in reliability and has been optimized to provide enhanced performance and capacity distribution for broadband missions. The satellites are designed to provide service for 15 years or more.

The contract award also includes satellite control facilities, support for system capacity planning and optimization, systems to manage satellite operations, and end-to-end systems integration support.

Engineered Arresting Systems Corporation (ESCO) Selects MSC Software's Adams

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 13:00:00 +0000

World Leader in Energy Absorption Equipment Relies on Adams to Create More Efficient Designs

MSC Software Corporation, the leader in multidiscipline simulation solutions that accelerate product innovation, today announced that Engineered Arresting Systems Corporation (ESCO), a division of Zodiac Aerospace, has selected MSC Software's flagship multibody dynamics simulation software, Adams, to complement existing CAD and analytical software used for product development.

As a member of the Zodiac Emergency Arresting Systems Division (EASD), Engineered Arresting Systems Corporation creates technology that stops motion, absorbs energy and promotes safety. The EASD is the world's leading supplier of emergency land-based arresting systems for military and commercial aircraft. Increasing the amount of dynamic modeling and the effects on equipment will lead to more efficient designs by eliminating excess weight and complicated design challenges without reducing safety or functionality.

Engineered Arresting Systems Corporation's commitment to saving lives and protecting high value assets means that expensive full scale physical tests have always been required. With current full scale testing exceeding $70,000 per day, any delay can quickly raise the cost of testing and extend testing time to unacceptable levels. The company will be using Adams to virtually exercise designs to ensure component optimization and performance confidence before any testing is performed. Adams is a perfect fit for ESCO's push towards innovation and commitment to being the global leader in mastering safety in motion.

Rich Orner, Vice President of Engineering at ESCO, stressed the importance of having a powerful tool such as Adams at its disposal: "In today's economy, it is critical to reduce time to market, reduce physical testing, increase quality, and meet rapidly changing customer requirements in order to maintain Engineered Arresting Systems' place as the world leader in energy absorption equipment. Using Adams' simulation and optimization capabilities will help us to achieve our objectives."

About Engineered Arresting Systems (ESCO)

Air Nostrum receives its 75th Bombardier Commercial Aircraft

Fri, 03 Feb 2012 17:35:40 +0000

Bombardier Aerospace and Air Nostrum of Valencia, Spain yesterday celebrated the delivery of the airline's 75^th Bombardier commercial aircraft at Bombardier's Mirabel facility in QuÃ©bec, where the CRJ aircraft are manufactured. The aircraft, a CRJ1000 NextGen regional jet, was accepted by Miguel Ãngel FalcÃ³n, General Manager, Air Nostrum.

The 75^th aircraft follows nine CRJ1000 NextGen, 11 CRJ900, and 35 CRJ200 regional jets, as well as 19 Q300 turboprops that have previously been delivered to Air Nostrum.

"Bombardier's CRJ and Q-Series aircraft have served Air Nostrum's operations exceedingly well and I'm delighted to be here today to accept our latest CRJ1000 NextGen regional jet for our fleet," said Mr. FalcÃ³n. "Since their entry-into-service in 2010, we have deployed our CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft on high-frequency routes to feed the hubs of our oneworldÂ® alliance partner, Iberia. The CRJ10000 NextGen aircraft are performing beyond our expectations, delivering reduced costs per seat, increasing efficiencies, reducing environmental emissions and providing an enhanced passenger experience."

"As a launch customer for the CRJ1000 NextGen regional jet, Air Nostrum has been a steadfast champion in the aircraft's entry-into-service, and we are delighted to hand over the airline's 10^th model of the type," said Sylvain Leclerc, Vice President & General manager, CRJ Programs, Bombardier Commercial Aircraft, during the delivery event. "We wish Air Nostrum much continued success as one of Europe's leading regional airlines," added Mr Leclerc.

Air Nostrum is one of the largest regional airlines in Europe and a member of oneworld airline alliance. With some 2,000 employees, the airline operates more than 150,000 annual flights on more than 120 routes, and carries over 5 million passengers per year.

Air Nostrum is the only regional airline in Europe that has been chosen as "Airline of the Year" (Golden Category), by the European Regions Airline Association (ERA) on five occasions. The airline has also been awarded with the "Palme D'Or," by the same association. In 2011, Air Transport World named Air Nostrum as its "Regional Airline of the Year."

In total, Bombardier has recorded firm orders for 1,709 CRJ Series regional jets and 1,084 Q-Series turboprops.

CRJ1000 NextGen

At entry-into-service in 2010, the CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft joined the most successful regional aircraft family in the world, building on a proven platform, with proven reliability and cost efficiency, while providing increased seating capacity and lower seat-mile costs.

Designed specifically to meet the needs of airlines in high-frequency regional markets, the CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft is now proving that it is a sound investment for its operators. The CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft is achieving the lowest cash operating cost per mile and per seat for operators in its market segment, while delivering extra range, exceptional reliability and a greener footprint.

The CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft has been achieving a mission fuel consumption rate that is four per cent better than estimated at launch. The improved fuel burn directly results in a four per cent reduction in carbon dioxide emissions, equivalent to an average reduction of nearly 700 tons of greenhouse gases per aircraft, each year. The CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft is also achieving six per cent greater range than previously advertised, providing additional operational flexibility. The competitive aircraft is more than 9,700 kg (21,385 lbs) or 22 per cent heavier than the CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft for comparable passenger flights or same distance missions. The CRJ1000 NextGen aircraft's lower operating weight empty (OWE), fuel-efficient General Electric engines and its high-efficiency wing design, are key factors contributing to the airliner's lower fuel burn.

CRJ NextGen aircraft provide an outstanding passenger environment with a new interior that features larger overhead luggage bins, larger windows, improved cabin lighting, and redesigned ceiling panels and sidewalls.

About Bombardier Commercial Aircraft

Bombardier Commercial Aircraft, a business unit of Bombardier Inc., is a world leader in the design and production of aircraft that seat up to 145 passengers. Its mission is to provide a complete range of commercial aircraft optimized for best-in-class efficiency with the highest level of customer service.
