Reb Technologies, March 05, 2023 - Bedford, Texas - REB Technologies Inc. “REBTECH” in February completed their latest FAA STC for Night Vision Lighting.

This one involves a UH-60A for aircraft owner HeliStream Inc. in Costa Mesa, California.

“Obtaining the STC is important to REBTECH since the market for that platform is becoming very popular over several mission capabilities. We have worked with HeliStream Inc. a few times before and when they came to us to modify the UH-60 we jumped on the opportunity. HeliStream was pleased with the components supplied for the aircraft and the work of our technicians," stated Richard Borkowski, President of REBTECH.

“Working with REBTECH to equip our UH-60 with Night Vision modifications was an easy decision,” said Golden Anderson, Director of Maintenance at HeliStream.

The name HeliStream is synonymous with superior safety and service, so we like to partner with vendors who have the same standards. REBTECH shares those same values, and we are proud of the partnership that has been built."
