Providing specialist modelling & simulation engineering support
Engineering Director, Canada, LG OEM
We have been working with Skynetics since 2015 on various projects. In 2016 we had a large peak in our modelling and simulation workload and we engaged Skynetics again to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the landing gear extension and retraction system, and to perform a landing gear shimmy analysis. Skynetics deployed several engineering analysts to the task and we found the team to be tremendously knowledgeable and skilled. The activity was completed professionally, liaising with our North American and European engineers and our European client. With Skynetics’ assistance the product successfully completed the Critical Design Review and is now in-service.
Engineering Manager, UK, Aircraft OEM
Skynetics provided excellent technical support for several aircraft landing gear Research and Technology projects, at both a system and equipment level. For example, long term work on a novel actuation project included activities such as requirement definition, performance studies, and supplier technical management; this comprehensive work led to build a very successful critical design review dossier. Skynetics also delivered impressive modelling and simulation efforts for state-of-the-art performance analysis, which required integrating inputs from a Japan-based supplier with a different culture and experience of using modern tools and techniques. 
System Lead, European Urban Air Mobility Innovator, OEM
In our company’s challenging pursuit to optimise a novel urban air mobility platform Skynetics was engaged to assist us understand and evaluate the impact of shimmy and LG stability. In the course of the small but critical project we found Skynetics to be expertly knowledgeable, professional, and responsive to the stop-start project demands.

The benefits of a consultancy

From Angela Almeida at The Dream Team VA  > www.dream-team-va.com  > LinkedIn

Thinking about hiring a consultant but unsure if it’s worth the time, hassle or cost?

Many companies are choosing the ease of consultancy over in-house recruitment. Whilst at first glance a consultant’s fee may seem somewhat expensive, many organizations are realising just how economical and efficient hiring a consultant can really be in the long term. Taking onboard a consultant who has the relevant experience and a proven record of success to back up their promises could be one of the best investments your company makes.
