In larger aircraft, some of the places that hydraulics come into play include primary flight controls, including flap/slat drives, spoiler and rudders, landing gear, nose wheel steering, thrust reversers and emergency hydraulic-driven electrical generators. These systems resemble commercial aircraft in style and sophistication. Both use hydraulic fuses extensively in the landing gear systems.

Smaller bizjets typically have simple systems that are primarily electro-mechanical with hydraulics used only for landing gear and possibly flight controls.

Key design consideration for business aircraft can include pressure and temperature variations, weight management, leakage and component and systems reliability.

AUSCO provides valves and manifolds designed for reliability with mean time between failure rates that exceed industry standard. We help keep your plane in the air.
