Reb Technologies (Rebtech) last month received an FAA supplemental type certificate (STC) to install its night vision lighting on a UH-60A helicopter operated by HeliStream. The California-based operator also has ordered the equipment for installation in its Bell 205. The work has begun at Rebtech’s facility in Bedford, Texas.

According to Rebtech president Richard Borkowski, its night vision lighting has become a popular option for the UH-60A. HeliStream is an existing customer for other modification projects using Rebtech lighting systems, for which it now holds more than 30 FAA STCs and also approvals from European regulator EASA. Rebtech (Booth B5315) has conducted equipment installations for customers in Africa, Asia, Europe, and Australia, as well as in South, Central, and North America.
