Flight Components AG, an Emteq Company located in Switzerland, in conjunction with Emteq's Wisconsin headquarters, is the primary designer of the light.

Emteq's launch customer, Lynden Air Cargo, is installing the 400cd light on L-382 aircraft, making this light an excellent option for retrofit replacement on C-130 and many other similar-sized military aircraft, as well as most Part 25 civilian aircraft.

Sam Matar, Emteq's Director – Global Aftermarket Business Development explains: "We've designed the light so that internal components should remain unchanged regardless of the installation. The adapter plate interface may be different from model to model, but once certified on a particular aircraft, the installation is greatly simplified."

Other benefits to Emteq's newest anti-collision light compared to non-LED lights include:
• Use of COB (chip-on-board) technology for significantly more compact packaging
• Longer life with reduced replacement and maintenance costs
• Lighter weight for reduced fuel costs

Emteq's other exterior lighting products include tail and navigation lights; anti-collision and combination light assemblies. All are designed and manufactured to respective Joint Aviation or Federal Aviation Requirements (JAR/FAR); meet RTCA-DO-160 and Mil-STD-810 standards and many have TSO/ETSO approval as well. Many custom design applications are in development.
