Working in cooperation with DRB Aviation Consultants, TALCO will cater to owner and operators of narrow and wide-body Boeing and Airbus airframes which are currently in the process or those scheduled for VIP interior installations and modifications.

Over the past three years alone, DRB and team members who now make up the TALCO business have been involved with seven Boeing Business Jets, two Airbus A319s, and five Embraer Lineage 1000s ranging from green airframes to complete refurbishments. 

Tom Langeland, President of TALCO Aviation, said “The strategic partnership established between TALCO and DRB will provide our clients access to an entire team of professionals who are industry experts in every engineering, certification, and completion management discipline related to narrow and wide-body aircraft completions.  This is a departure from the more typical stand-alone individual representatives normally seen in our industry.”

DRB Aviation Consultants of San Antonio was recently awarded a major interior modification STC for an award-winning international luxury flight service provider. The modification of the BBJ included the state of art Lufthansa Nice™ In Flight Entertainment System, new cabinetry and soft goods which rival any VIP interior to date. 

Don Bell, President of DRB Aviation, said “This STC marks a major milestone for the team by demonstrating our ability to provide Turn Key solutions which includes Engineering, Certification, Program Completion Management, and Vendor Management.  The work scope of this refurbishment was of a level equal to our green BBJ efforts.”
