We\nbelieve wholeheartedly that Canada must have one or more OEMs for imaginative\nplatforms like this and are delighted to have teamed up with the Horizon\nAircraft folks to try and help them do exactly that,\u201d says Phil Cole, VP\nBusiness Development of 3C. \u201cBased on extensive prior experience, Horizon\nAircraft understands the challenges ahead both with airworthiness approval and\nwith vehicle operations. Accordingly, they are taking a very pragmatic approach\nto their development in order to significantly lower program risk.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are humbled and grateful to be able to work with John\nMaris and his world class team at 3C,\u201d says Brandon Robinson, Chief Executive\nOfficer Horizon Aircraft. \u201c3C is an internationally recognized company that has\nled successful certification programs on numerous aircraft, has deep technical\nexpertise in aircraft design, and has deep connections within the Canadian\naerospace community. This partnership will help to further reduce technical\nrisk as we build our innovative project towards an exciting and sustainable\nfuture.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Horizon Aircraft and 3C look forward to releasing more\ndetails in the near future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following a series of joint meetings, Flight Test Centre of Excellence (3C) and Robinson Aircraft ULC (Horizon Aircraft), signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) under which the two companies will collaborate on aspects of the continued development and path to certification of Horizon Aircraft\u2019s Cavorite X5 program.
