Collins Aerospace Systems recently expanded its Casablanca operations by 40 percent to accommodate growth. Expected to be complete by spring 2020, the extension will increase the site’s size by 40 percent and is anticipated to create 60 new jobs. Established in 2012, the Casablanca facility conducts final assembly and testing for commercial aircraft cockpit and cabin equipment, including sidesticks, throttles and rudder controls. The site expansion will support the production of rudder controls for the A320neo family as well as the future assembly of Horizontal Stabilizer Trim Actuators for the 777X—two new programs Collins Aerospace was selected for in recent years.
