Aerospace & Aircraft Testing Services
Dayton T. Brown, Inc. (DTB) has been supporting the space and satellite industries with advanced engineering, testing solutions, technical publications, and logistics support by offering a powerful blend of expertise, superior customer service, and a thorough understanding of product life cycle needs and customer requirements. We offer engineering and analysis, testing and system evaluation, and technical services on a wide range of satellites, rockets, and spacecraft for civil, commercial, and military use.
DTB’s proven test methods for aerospace structures, as well as components for fixed wing and rotorcraft applications, can bring your business to new heights. We cover proof of concept testing, conformity inspections, and complete RTCA/DO-160 certification testing to the latest revision.
Equipment destined for space must function as designed, with no margin for error: DTB can help the industry meet those mission critical specifications.
DTB has extensive test facilities, teams of experienced aerospace engineers, support staff, and around-the-clock operations to complete your test programs efficiently and on schedule. We specialize in large unit testing on our T4000 and on our T5500 with head expander and a 3 in. displacement.
Our aerospace engineering and testing experience runs the gamut from non-destructive inspection (NDI) with a full, in-house, climate-controlled dimensional and metallurgical laboratory; to failure analysis, in-flight instrumentation, and data acquisition; to alternate source qualification testing – complete with design engineering, fabrication, and final approval.

Technical Publications &
Logistics Services
DTB specializes in technical publications and logistics services to commercial (including freighter conversions) and military aviation and aerospace requirements.
Tech Pubs
Regardless of the size or complexity of your platform, system, or component, our team of documentation experts will analyze your requirements, assimilate and evaluate all of the source data, and develop technical manuals that complement the maintenance and performance for servicing your platform and equipment. Additionally, we maintain a tear-down facility for equipment analysis and technical manual validation, or we can perform these activities as part of certification or client delivery.
We develop technical manuals consisting of illustrated parts catalogs, flight, overhaul, and maintenance manuals, wiring diagrams, flight checklists, all forms of completion manuals, and the development of supplemental type certificates (STCs) and instructions for continued airworthiness (ICAs).

Logistic Services
Experience has shown that performing logistics planning efforts early and often in system development yields the best results for program lifecycle support. We assess logistics analysis requirements at each level, and include traceability for all procedures for higher maintenance fidelity. Good logistics analysis provides the information needed to make proactive decisions, building the framework for efficiency, optimal maintenance practices, parts availability, and ultimately pave the way to maintenance-focused technical manuals.
