ACHR stock’ Recent Development
As the firm prepares for its first flight later this year, Archer Aviation has built the finest Flight Control and Software team, lately adding Sergio Ferreira to manage the firm’s fly-by-wire flight control system development. Ferreira has been creating, integrating, testing, confirming, and certifying fly-by-wire flight control systems for over two decades. He enters Archer after over a decade with Gulfstream Aerospace, where he mostly worked briefly as the Advanced Aircraft Systems Flight Control Systems Lead.
He was formerly the Flight Control Systems lead for Gulfstream’s fly-by-wire flight control systems for the Gulfstream G400, G500, and G600, where he had been vital for the formation, integration, validation, and certification of the flight control computers for that aircraft family. As Archer approaches maiden flight, Ferreira’s decades of aviation experience will benefit the Flight Control and Software team.
Damien Bardon, a founding member of Archer, has been promoted to Director of Vehicle Management Systems. Bardon will head the Flight Control and Software team in the field of critical aircraft devices that allow control of the aircraft in this position.
Moreover,
Prior to joining Archer, Bardon worked at Airbus’ Silicon Valley innovation lab, ACubed, where he led the avionics development for the Vahana eVTOL demonstration. He oversaw the creation of the Vahana avionics systems from the initial design to the successful conclusion of a flight test campaign. He’s worked with avionics components related to navigation, communication, flight controls, embedded flight software, as well as other complicated aircraft systems that enable fly-by-wire flight control.
