Aviation in itself is not inherently dangerous. But to an even greater degree than the sea, it is terribly unforgiving of any carelessness, incapacity or neglect.

Maximize Mid to Late-Life Aircraft Values & Cross-Border Marketability with Jetaire’s INVICTA for FTFR Compliance
Aircraft lessors maintain continual focus on the preservation of asset values and minimizing cost exposure. At Jetaire, we understand the challenges that come with new AD mandates that require costly modifications and lengthy implementation, which can hinder the ultimate goal. The upcoming FTFR mandate is an unavoidable certainty that has the potential to negatively impact existing deal metrics, marketability, and the commercial life of your aircraft. That's why INVICTA™ from Jetaire offers the perfect solution to achieve compliance with the Fuel Tank Flammability Reduction (FTFR) rule, which will affect mid to late-life Airbus and Boeing aircraft in 2026.
Designed specifically to mitigate exposure risks, the INVICTA recognized Flammability Reduction System is the most cost effective and technically straight forward retrofit solution in the market, retaining global marketability and attractiveness of your asset, and giving you peace of mind around cost and integration,
With over 30 countries planning to mandate flammability reduction by 2026, now is the time to coordinate with your operators to meet all regulatory and lease obligations. This will protect you from costly AD contributions and AOG scenarios.

The INVICTA Story
What is INVICTA?
INVICTA is the ultimate safety system designed to prevent catastrophic explosions that can occur due to fuel tank vapors, as tragically seen in the accident involving TWA Flight 800. Unlike original equipment manufacturer (OEM) solutions that rely on complex nitrogen generating systems and additional wiring, INVICTA achieves an even better outcome through dissipation of a spark as an approved Ignition Mitigation Means (IMM).
Flammability reduction compliance is achieved through the installation of Jetaire's proprietary Reticulated Polyurethane Foam (RPF) technology within the center wing tank. This innovative solution offers a convenient kit consisting of precision-cut lightweight RPF segments, which can be easily installed through existing inspection access points to perfectly fill the entire center tank.
Designed for Operational Efficiency & Aircraft Marketability - INVICTA Provides Exceptional Benefits for Lessors
Industry-Wide Acceptance
With more than 150+ aircraft modified and validation across FAA, EASA, TCCA, ANAC, and AFAC, INVICTA is the proven premier alternative to costly nitrogen-generating systems.
INVICTA stands for Peace of Mind. Choose INVICTA for its unmatched total cost of ownership, ease and safety meeting FTFR compliance.
