CHARLOTTE, N.C., 5 Oct. 2011.Goodrich Corp. (NYSE: GR) will provide high density video reproducer units (VRU) to upgrade the entertainment system on the Airbus A330 fleet of Gulf Air, Bahrain's national carrier. Installation will begin in late 2011 and continue through 2012.


The Goodrich VRUs are direct plug-and-play replacement units for the airline's current Hi-8 film-driven video reproducers. These new, high-density file servers provide up to 40 hours of video and entertainment content, including "early window" movies that are not yet available for general distribution.

quot;Gulf Air has come to represent the highest standards in quality and service to our customers," said Mohammed El Assaad, Senior Manager, IFE & Communications at Gulf Air, "the new Goodrich VRUs will greatly enhance our customers' experience."
