Support for Original and Supplemental Icing Certification Campaigns
CERTIF-ICE provides unique and complete services for aircraft programs. As a one-stop shop for icing certification, our firm brings together technical expertise, advanced computational analysis, testing coordination, and certification authority interaction for complex certification campaigns.
Ice Protection System (IPS) Design
Our team helps clients design IPS with advanced computational tools, including hot air and electrothermal IPS design, heat loads, detector and probe placement.
Supplemental Type Certification
Our team has supplied computed 3D ice shapes for STCs that have been approved by the FAA, EASA and TCCA with no icing tunnel testing needed.
Methods of Compliance (MoC) Support
Our technology uniquely combines Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Experimental Fluid Dynamics (EFD), and Flight Fluid Dynamics (FFD) methodologies for icing certification programs.
Proprietary Reduced Order Modeling Technology
Through ROM, our team helps map the “full icing certification envelope” across Appendices C, D, and 0, supporting efficient coverage of required icing conditions, including those proven difficult to encounter during natural icing campaigns.
Natural Icing Campaign Services
From aircraft pickup to return, our team has coordinated the people, logistics, testing resources, and certification assistance needed to move the campaign forward with confidence.
01
Aircraft Ferrying & Return
Ferry pilots pick up the aircraft from its base, transport it to the test site, and return it to its base after campaign completion.
04
DER Campaign Support
Campaigns are supported by a Designated Engineering Representative (DER) campaign manager and DER test pilots.
02
Cross-Country Logistics
Our team coordinates ferrying logistical support across countries, including multi-country special flight authorizations.
05
Authority Liaison
Reduced Order Modeling (ROM) technology helps provide complete coverage of Appendices C, D, and O, while our team coordinates interaction with certification authorities.
03
Test Base Coordination
We manage test base airport coordination, logistical support, local accommodation, and transportation.
06
Meteorology & Instrumentation
Our team brings meteorological expertise in icing certification and flight instrumentation technical support.
