Flitetec

Flitetec is an aircraft components company. It started in 1985 as Formtec. Since 1993 it has offered all-inclusive solutions for sourcing, design, manufacturing and installation of aircraft parts. The company serves civil and defence customers for fixed wing aircraft and helicopters.

Flitetec sources OEM parts through its network. It also finds hard to find components, including niche parts that are end of life or obsolete. The website describes a network of distribution partners and a product range for all aircraft types.

Flitetec makes components for fixed wing and helicopter interiors. It can work from OEM designs, samples or fully bespoke designs. Its applications engineering works with OEMs and product designers to improve products. Reverse engineering takes existing products apart, analyses them and replicates them so production can continue. The company says its manufacturing service provides quality assured components at a fraction of the price of going to the source.

The integrate service covers consulting, installation, logistics and testing. The company offers a full component package from design through to installation. Its OEM Repair Hub service is listed as a separate service.
