Aviation Interactive Landscape
Today, Orolia is shaping the future of aviation by offering a wide selection of search and rescue solutions compliant to the latest standards for a variety of military and commercial aviation markets.
Ultima Line
Orolia, through its Kannad brand, has designed and supplied a comprehensive range of ELTs (fixed & portable) to the aviation industry for decades, becoming one of the world’s leading distress beacon manufacturers. More than thirty aircraft manufacturers as well as hundreds of airlines already trust Orolia for its ability to design and supply state of the art ELTs while following the highest quality standards.
As one of the major contributors in defining these new standards with regulators and architectures with aircraft manufacturers, Orolia now helps operators comply with GADSS and the special requirements through next-generation ELTs, under its new Kannad Ultima range.
Orolia is a leading contributor in the design, development and deployment of the aviation industry’s next-generation emergency management system known as GADSS (Global Aeronautical Distress Safety System) and other emerging aviation/aerospace safety initiatives.
As part of the Global Aeronautical Distress and Safety System (GADSS) regulation adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), large aircraft delivered after January 1, 2021, are required to be equipped with an Autonomous Distress Tracking (ADT) capability to transmit an alert, along with aircraft successive positions, as soon as a distress condition is detected while the aircraft is still in flight. Key stakeholders, like operators, ATSU and RCC shall access resulting distress tracking data.
As the leader of the HELIOS European project, in collaboration with Air France, Airbus and Cobham, Orolia is committed to provide airframers and operators with an ADT compliant solution to meet ICAO recommendations. For that purpose, Orolia is currently developing Kannad Ultima-DT, a crash survivable distress tracking ELT which meets Special Conditions on lithium batteries.
