Aircraft tracking − A process, established by the operator, that maintains and updates, at standardized intervals, a ground-based record of the four dimensional position of individual aircraft in flight. (Annex 6, Part I, Section 3.5, Aircraft trackingFile:Example.jpg).

For any aircraft to upgrade TCAS to software version 7.1 means nothing more than modification, i.e. type design change. In order to bring the aircraft in compliance with the requirements of the directive it is necessary to: replace TCAS processor with SW version 7.0 by a similar unit with SW version 7.1, amend aircraft flight and maintenance manuals, provide pilots training with TCAS version 7.1 features. All information needed for pilots training regarding TCAS version 7.1 is listed below. We provide complex services to our clients to upgrade TCAS to version 7.1: TCAS processor modification, replacement, supply or/and rent (lease) i.a.w. the table below, documents approved by the Ukrainian Aviation Authorities, necessary tools, equipment, materials and personnel, consulting, technical support and assistance.

The TTR-920 is not upgradable to Change 7.1. Aircraft equipped with TTR-920 processor require replacement of TTR-920 by TTR-921 or TTR-2100 processor. Caution! The factors listed below may lead to extra charges for upgrade of your TCAS processor: if the unit is unserviceable, has hidden defects, broken seals or repaired in organizations that are not authorized by the OEM, lack of data about the history of the unit (FAA Form 8130 or EASA FORM 1), if mandatory service bulletins are still not implemented.

DOCUMENTS (STC)

Documents approved by the Ukrainian NAA include: Supplemental Type Certificate (STC), Flight Manual Supplement, Maintenance Manual Supplement, Illustrated Parts Catalog (IPC) Supplement, Service Bulletin with instructions to perform maintenance by the Part 145 or Part M Subpart F organization (level of maintenance is line). Onboard TCAS checks (ground test) should be performed for a first aircraft in the Approved Model List. We can provide necessary tools and equipment, test set for TCAS check, materials and staff. The customer issues Engineering Order and final CRS. Attention to the organizations that would prefer to use the services of foreign companies! According to paragraph 2 of article 11 of the Air Code of Ukraine (doc. reference No. 3393-VI, revision 11.08.2013) "Aviation Rules of Ukraine must be observed by all legal and natural persons in Ukraine and by entities of aviation activities of Ukraine outside its territory."
