Pennant International Group Plc comprises a number of individual companies which provide engineering products and services to wide range of markets in the UK, Canada, Australasia and the US. Its head office is in Cheltenham, UK.
The Company operates through three segments: [1]
The GenFly Generic Flying Controls Trainer is an aircraft maintenance training rig developed in the late twentieth century for the Royal Air Force, for use in training airframe mechanics and technicians, particularly in maintenance activities involving flying controls and aircraft hydraulics. [2]
The RAF took delivery of four GenFly units to RAF Cosford, UK. [3] The training manuals were written to RAF aircraft maintenance documentation standards, in order to familiarise students with the format. All four rigs were assigned tail numbers from the RAF military aircraft register, to allow even greater realism in simulating aircraft documentation, while avoiding the possibility of confusion from fabricated tail numbers coinciding with those of real airframes. The tail numbers are: ZJ695, ZJ696, ZJ697 and ZJ698. [4] The device entered service in 2001.[ citation needed]
