Quality FAI Support.
Complete. Compliant. First Article.
First Article Inspection is a compliance gate — not a formality. Incomplete or non-conforming FAI packages delay program entry and erode customer confidence. AERCONIC manages the full FAI lifecycle: from planning and drawing ballooning through Form 1, 2, and 3 completion, material certification verification, and non-conformance resolution. We interface directly between manufacturing, inspection, and customer representatives to close the package efficiently and correctly — the first time.
