Delta Orders World’s Biggest LED Retrofit for Its Fleet of Aircraft

Delta Airlines is going to retrofit its fleet with LED Lights to increase fleet efficiency.With 1224 planes in its massive fleet, Delta Air Lines is world’s largest airline. As such, operational costs in this razor-thin margin business are of utmost importance.New products are one way to reduce those operational and even more expensive maintenance costs.

Madelec T800 LED Tubes are compatible with old tech CCFL, and offer considerable savings in weight, longevity and power consumption.

Even though neither the carrier nor the company released more details, T800 should reduce power consumption in double-digit percentages, leading to a miniscule but still bottom-line affecting reduction in fuel burn and emissions.
