Japan Airlines Modernizes 747-Classics fleet with Teledyne Data Acquisition Units

LOS ANGELES – October 1, 2002 – Teledyne Controls, a Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE: TDY) company, announced today that Japan Airlines (JAL) has selected Teledyne’s Digital Flight Data Acquisition Units (DFDAU) and test equipment to modernize its fleet of Boeing 747-200/-300 aircraft.

“JAL is one of Teledyne’s long standing customers for our data acquisition products”, said Masood Hassan, general manager of Teledyne Controls, “We are proud to have the opportunity to continue the relationship with this modernization program.”

Teledyne Controls’ DFDAU is designed to ensure compliance with current FAA and European JAR-OPS requirements by acquiring data and formatting it for output to mandatory Digital Flight Data Recorders (DFDR). Teledyne’s DFDAU also records non-mandatory raw and message (reports) data and outputs data to the ground for analysis via ACARS / QAR (Quick Access Recorder) / wireless infrastructure, as well as to peripheral systems such as printers or a display. This data is used for aircraft and engine trend monitoring functions, aircraft maintenance, and in support of proactive safety programs such as flight operations quality assurance (FOQA).
