Modular Shade System 2 is a range of customizable, modular, powered aircraft window shade assemblies, designed specifically for the private airliner market (VIP and head of state aircraft). The system is based on the Powertech 2 mechanism and is fully adaptable to each aircraft type and specific window location combination and in addition to the Powertech 2 features also has the following key benefits:
- Can be manufactured as a single, double or triple aperture unit (aircraft structural windows) at varying window pitches
- Designed for Narrowbody (MS2) or Widebody (MS3) applications
- All components are common except the window reveal (outer shell) and window collar (outer reveal) which are aircraft specific
- Because units are identical expect for the outer reveal and collar shapes, virtually all certification testing can be covered by similarity/identicality, significantly reducing developmental lead item and cost
- Minimal recommended spares provision list (high parts commonality)
- Fully customizable in appearance (shade fabrics; shade rails; back shell color; outer reveal (collar) color; optional available “framed look” on certain aircraft applications)
