Aviation

The Aviation Group Services include:

Investigation and analysis of aircraft accidents, in-flight fires and equipment failures, computer reconstruction of flight paths using "black box" data, avionics and electrical power systems failure analysis, and flight crew factors. RTI's experts are experienced as technical spokespeople to clearly express objective opinions and to render practical recommendations to avoid future accidents.


Aviation Engineering Expertise RTI's team of aviation experts has investigated accidents, losses, and technical incident issues in a variety of aviation matters, for law firms, insurance companies, as well as aircraft manufacturers and operators. RTI participates as an active corporate member of the International Society of Air Safety Investigators (ISASI).


RTI's Forensic Visuals team can produce accurate aircraft performance reconstructions based on digital recorders and environmental data. These reconstructions are not only very effective aids in claims settlement and litigation resolution, but also serve as an invaluable training tool in a proactive safety management programme thereby assisting greatly in reducing losses and high-cost aviation claims.
