Dart Helicopter Services' announces that their subsidiary partner Apical Industries is pleased to announce that they have added Cable Cutters Kit to their expanding product line. FAA approval has been received; Transport Canada and EASA are pending.

The Cable Cutters Kit provides a means of protecting the helicopter during a wire strike by providing the capability to cut a cable of wire before catastrophic damage occurs. The kit is designed to reduce the possibility of a cable of wire entering the cockpit and to reduce the chance of flight control damage. Similar cable/wire cutting devices have proven to be effective even during multiple wire strikes. The kit incorporates both an upper and lower cutter and each cutter is designed with high strength cutting blades. The Apical cutter design was tested to verify the capability to cut a cable having a 14,000 lb tensile strength.

"Apical will continue a strong effort in product diversification in 2009 to include additional cable cutters kits and air conditioning systems. Our goals in regard to new products will be to follow a time tested strategy of continued innovation and great value for our customers around the world," commented Ron Gladnick, Jr., President of Apical Industries, Inc.
