Deutsche Aircraft selects American Data Solutions (ADS) for Technical Publication Management of the D328eco®

Wessling / Atlanta, 12 May 2025 – Deutsche Aircraft, a leading regional aircraft manufacturer, has selected American Data Solutions (ADS) as the provider of its Technical Publication Management Solutions for the next-generation regional turboprop, the D328eco. ADS will equip Deutsche Aircraft with an integrated and advanced suite of solutions and services, featuring the MDDC™ Content Management System (CMS) and intuitive MDDV™ Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals (IETM), complemented by dedicated support. These powerful tools will revolutionise the generation, management and delivery of all D328eco Operational and Maintenance Technical Publications, enabling operators to significantly enhance their efficiency.

This initiative offers a unique opportunity to directly link technical manuals with real-time aircraft maintenance, providing operators with immediate access to the latest maintenance and operational techniques and advice, specific to their fleet or individual aircraft tail numbers.

The advanced 40-seater D328eco regional turboprop is set to enter service by the end of 2027. Building on the legacy of the D328®, it offers improved fuel efficiency, lower emissions and state-of-the-art avionics. To support this cutting-edge aircraft, Deutsche Aircraft requires a robust and scalable technical publication solution to ensure seamless maintenance, operational support and compliance with global aviation standards, including S1000D.

ADS’s proven expertise in aerospace technical data management makes it the ideal partner for this groundbreaking project. Their next-generation MDDC CMS suite will streamline the creation, storage and distribution of Technical Publications, while the MDDV Class-6 IETM will empower D328eco operators worldwide with intuitive, interactive access to vital maintenance and operating procedures, backed by ADS’s tailored support services to ensure rapid response times and maximum fleet availability.

“We are pleased to partner with ADS to deliver world-class technical data solutions for the D328eco,” said Nico Neumann, Co-CEO of Deutsche Aircraft. “Their innovative CMS and IETM platforms, combined with their deep industry knowledge, will allow our customers to operate the D328eco with maximum efficiency and reliability. This partnership is a significant step in our quest to transform regional aviation.”

“ADS is delighted to have been selected by Deutsche Aircraft to support the D328eco,” expressed Ran Meriaz, CEO of American Data Solutions. “Our next-generation technical data solutions are designed to meet the evolving needs of modern aircraft programmes, and we are thrilled to be part of the success of this groundbreaking aircraft.”

The selection of ADS underscores Deutsche Aircraft’s commitment to leveraging cutting-edge technology and partnerships to deliver a sustainable, high-performance aircraft. With the first test aircraft scheduled to roll out at the end of May 2025 and entry into service planned for late 2027, the D328eco is poised to set new standards in the regional aviation market.

- Schedules data: full year 2019 vs. 2020 – excludes non-scheduled flying
- In-service data:
- For 2019 the data is dated April while for 2020 it’s dated October. We wanted to compare “shoulder month” to shoulder month, however April 2020 wouldn’t have captured the immediate impact of Coronavirus as our dataset classes aircraft as in storage after 3 months of inactivity.

New talent appointed to strengthen the Deutsche aircraft programme

As part of its continued support of Deutsche Aircraft’s D328eco aircraft programme, 328 Support Services GmbH recently appointed a panel of “talent experts” to further strengthen the overall team and ensure strong management structure and processes are in place across the D328eco development programme. Today we focus on the Engineering & Programme departments.

On the programme side, Mr. Peter Spyrka has been appointed Director of Programmes. Peter brings over 20 years’ experience in the global aerospace industry with engineering & development works on both civil and military aircraft programmes. Prior to joining Deutsche Aircraft, Peter worked at Airbus, leading the Hybrid Electric Propulsion System development programme for demonstrator projects. He also worked for Fairchild Dornier back in the late 1990’s.

In Engineering, Mr. Jean-Damien Mazeau has been appointed as our new Head of Propulsion Systems. Jean-Damien also brings more than 20 years’ aeronautical experience to Deutsche Aircraft, having built most of his career at Airbus. He was most recently involved with the A320neo’s entry into service, in charge of propulsion system’s global technical Support.

Last but not least, Dr. Stefan Brunner brings more than two decades of expertise and experience to his position as Head of Airframe. Throughout his career, Stefan spent more than 17 years working directly for the Airbus group where he was heavily involved with a wide variety of major engineering programmes on both commercial aviation and defence & space programmes. In his new role, Stefan will be responsible for design, analysis and modification of the D328eco airframe’s primary structure (Fuselage, Fairings, Wing, Empennage), as well as establishing new processes and procedures to complete aircraft development. Finally, he is responsible for ensuring compliance with the European Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) regulations.

In addition to Peter, Jean Damien and Stefan, we are also proud to announce that we have been busy hiring new talent from not only within Germany, but from all over the world. Coming from a variety of companies within the aerospace industry, we look forward to utilising our new team members’ skills and expertise to achieve the entry into service scheduled for 2025.

All are great assets to the current Engineering & Programme team and will, without a doubt, help support Deutsche Aircraft’s development programme over the coming years.
