Moog purchases Genesys Aerosystems

As a manufacturer of flight control systems for military and commercial aircraft, Moog’s addition of Genesys adds advanced avionics suites, including the IDU-680 and IDU-450 displays, digital radios, ADAHRS, GPS, DAU and autopilots for fixed-wing and rotorcraft aircraft.

“It has been exciting to be part-owner of Genesys Aerosystems as we have seen the company grow over the last few years,” explained Roger Smith, CEO of Genesys Aerosystems. “We know that to optimize the growth potential of the company and product lines, Genesys needs to have a long-term parent company that can support both organic and inorganic growth, and Moog is just that company.”

Companies are well aligned

“When searching for a company that would be the right fit for Genesys, we highlighted Moog as the best option to ensure our customers will still receive the highest level of customer support,” added Gordon Pratt, Chief Growth Officer of Genesys Aerosystems. “The core philosophies of both companies are well aligned; we expect the transition to be seamless and imperceptible to our suppliers and valued customers.”

Last month, the Genesys IFR avionics suite on the Airbus EC145e earned the approval of Transport Canada.
