From the Aciturri's plant in Seville, the Aerostructures team has completed the delivery to Airbus Defence&Space the C295 wings #AV210, a Light&Medium family aircraft of the aeronautical giant.

Aciturri has been solely responsible for the "build to print" of this complex control surface since 2004. Since then, it has been responsible for the detail parts and subassemblies manufacturing, the complete assembly and adjustment of moving surfaces, the fitting of electrical and hydraulic installations, flight and engine controls, fuel and air conditioning systems, as well as the performance of functional tests, sealing and leading edge inflation.

With this last delivery, the company completes the milestone of 200 wing groups delivered to the customer, with the purpose of continuing to collaborate with one of our main customers in the success of this versatile tactical mission and transport aircraft.

In this sense, Airbus Defence&Space carried out the delivery ceremony last Friday of the 200th aircraft to the Canadian Air Force at the FAL in Seville. The ceremony was attended by the President of the Regional Government of Andalusia, Juan Manuel Moreno Bonilla, together with the President of Airbus Spain, Alberto Gutierrez, and the Minister of Economic Transformation, Industry, Knowledge and Universities, Rogelio Velasco.
