Keywords Dunlop, Tyres
Dunlop Aircraft Tyres has been chosen to supply the original equipment nose and mainwheel tyres for the Fairchild Aerospace 328Jet (Plate 12).
The aircraft has been developed under an extreme fast-track programme. Dunlop Aircraft Tyres was able to develop, test and deliver tyres to Dornier two weeks earlier than the demanding 14-week schedule. The aircraft, which is due for certification as a 30-34 seat regional transport in early 1999, already has 61 orders and options.
