Aircraft nacelle systems maker Aircelle unveiled a innovative thin electro-luminescent display system to display logos, advertising or other messaging on airliners and business jets.
The system completed first evaluation flight on June 8 at night onboard an Airbus 380. The A380 testbed aircraft’s no. 1 outboard engine nacelle was outfitted with an Aircelle electro-luminescent display configured as an illuminated Airbus logo.
The testing demonstrated the marking’s brightness, clarity and readability – confirming its outstanding visibility at various lighting conditions and distances.
Aircelle has received positive response from aircraft manufacturing and airline executives who have been shown the electro-luminescent solution. It will be unveiled on the Paris Air Show exhibit of Safran (Hall A, Exhibit stand #228) from June 15 to June 21.
It is capable of showing a full range of graphics, patterns and animations, with placement almost anywhere on an aircraft – from the fuselage and under-fuselage belly to the engine nacelles and tail.
The concept is also scalable to private jets, enabling owners to personalize their aircraft with artistic designs.
