“Jetaire was there for us and delivered the needed kits in a timely fashion, allowing us to continue with our operation,” said John Woolley, Executive Vice President of Strategy for Eastern Airlines. “Jetaire moved quickly and professionally to ensure we were able to comply with the deadline for compliance we were facing.”
Installation of the Invicta system is cost effective and much faster and simpler than other products offered in the market, thus minimizing disruption of customers’ schedules. Once installed, the Invicta system is essentially maintenance-free and completely passive.
