Jesus Miranda, Head of Programme Production Engineering of Airbus Military P3 Orion

Jesus Miranda is part of EADS CASA for 26 years, where he began as a tooling engineer in Getafe, and has assumed various positions responsibility to assume his current position four years ago. In the P3 Orion has worked a team of nearly a hundred people (DIT and Production), in which Altran is involved in the Production Engineering department.

What are the characteristics of these aircraft and what is it used?

"The P3 have a flight range of 12/13 hours, have four turboprop engines and are used primarily for maritime patrol and in the case of Brazil is responsible for coastal surveillance. The complexity of the program is that there are no original plans of the basic platform, or documentation or electronic layout of the aircraft, so when designing new components, the measurements were performed manually on the aircraft itself and to be differences between the planes requires flexible designs that allow customizations "
