The Gill Corporation (TGC) is pleased to announce that Gillfab® 4122S is now available with allowables data that has been approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). OEMs and MROs can use this product with confidence as they design and manufacture interior structures and monuments.
“This project was a collaborative effort between TGC and Structural Integrity Engineering (SIE), after Gillfab® 4122S was selected for use in the forward galley, lavatory and ceilings of their new narrow body freighter conversion program. Our R&D team worked diligently with SIE engineers and the FAA to complete this project on an accelerated timeline. We’re thrilled with this achievement and we’re just getting started,” stated Candi Burdick, TGC Director of Aftermarket Sales.
