Quality Standards
In the aerospace industry, precision isn’t a luxury — it’s the baseline. When it’s about protecting lives, 99.9% is not sufficient. Even the smallest margin of error — just 0.1% — can have catastrophic consequences.
To put this in perspective, a 0.1% failure rate could mean:
- Two unsafe landings every single day at Frankfurt Airport — one of Europe’s busiest hubs
- 500 surgical errors every week — potentially life-altering or fatal
- 32,000 skipped heartbeats per year — enough to silence entire communities
In aerospace, there’s no room for compromise. Every component, every system, every decision must meet the highest standards — because when precision fails, people pay the price.
Excellence isn’t a goal. It’s our responsibility.
