Exhibit 99-1

TransDigm Inc. Announces Receipt of Required Consents in Consent Solicitation

CLEVELAND, OHIO, June 8, 2006 - TransDigm Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated (NYSE: TDG), announced today that it had received, as of 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on June 8, 2006, tenders and consents from holders of approximately 99.85% of the outstanding principal amount of its 8 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 (the “Notes”), in connection with its previously announced cash tender offer and consent solicitation for the Notes.

As a result of the receipt of the requisite consents, TransDigm intends to enter into a supplemental indenture effecting the proposed amendments, substantially as described in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated May 25, 2006 and the related Consent and Letter of Transmittal (the “Offer Documents”), with the trustee under the indenture governing the Notes. The proposed amendments, which will eliminate most of the restrictive covenants and certain events of default contained in the indenture, will become effective when TransDigm accepts for purchase the Notes validly tendered pursuant to the terms of the Offer Documents.

In accordance with the terms of the Offer Documents, tendered Notes may no longer be withdrawn and delivered consents may no longer be revoked, unless the tender offer and the consent solicitation are terminated without any Notes being purchased or TransDigm is required by law to permit withdrawal or revocation.

Holders who have not yet tendered their Notes may tender until midnight, New York City time, on the evening of June 22, 2006, unless extended or earlier terminated by TransDigm. The purchase price for any such tendered Notes is described in the Offer Documents. In addition, the pricing terms for the Notes will be determined as described in the Offer Documents and will be announced on June 9, 2006 (unless TransDigm, in its sole discretion, establishes a new price determination date).

The tender offer is subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer Documents, including TransDigm obtaining the financing necessary to pay for the Notes tendered and the consents delivered and to refinance all of the other indebtedness of TransDigm and its affiliates described in the Offer Documents.

TransDigm has retained Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC to act as Dealer Manager in connection with the tender offer and consent solicitation. Questions about the tender offer and consent solicitation may be directed to Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC at (800) 820-1653 (toll free) or (212) 538-0652 (collect). Copies of the Offer Documents and other related documents may be obtained from MacKenzie Partners, Inc., the information agent for the tender offer and consent solicitation, at (800) 322-2885 (toll free) or (212) 925-5500 (collect).

The tender offer and consent solicitation are being made solely by means of the Offer Documents. Under no circumstances shall this press release constitute an offer to purchase or the solicitation of an offer to sell the Notes or any other securities of TransDigm. It also is not a solicitation of consents to the proposed amendments to the indenture governing the Notes. No recommendation is made as to whether holders of the Notes should tender their Notes or give their consents.

Exhibit 99.2

TransDigm Inc. Announces Pricing of Tender Offer

For Its 8 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2011

CLEVELAND, OHIO, June 9, 2006 - TransDigm Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of TransDigm Group Incorporated (NYSE: TDG), announced today the consideration to be paid in its previously announced cash tender offer and consent solicitation for any and all of its outstanding 8 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 (the “Notes”). The tender offer and consent solicitation are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in TransDigm’s Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated May 25, 2006 and the related Consent and Letter of Transmittal (the “Offer Documents”).

The total consideration that will be payable in respect of Notes that are accepted for payment and that were validly tendered with consents delivered and not withdrawn on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 8, 2006, will be $1,064.08 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes. TransDigm currently expects to accept for payment, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Offer Documents, all of the validly tendered Notes on June 23, 2006, and the total consideration for the Notes was determined assuming payment on such date. In addition to the total consideration, which includes a consent payment of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes that will only be payable in respect of Notes that are accepted for payment and that were validly tendered with consents delivered and not withdrawn on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 8, 2006, TransDigm will pay accrued and unpaid interest up to but not including the payment date for the Notes purchased in the tender offer. The total consideration was determined as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, today, and was calculated based on the present value of $1,062.81 and all future interest payments on the Notes to July 15, 2006, minus accrued and unpaid interest from the last date on which interest has been paid, up to, but not including, the scheduled payment date. The present value was determined using the yield on the 7.0% U.S. Treasury Note due July 15, 2006, which was 5.298% as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, today, plus a fixed spread of 50 basis points

The tender offer will expire at midnight, New York City time, on June 22, 2006, unless extended or earlier terminated by TransDigm. In the event that the expiration date is extended, new pricing terms may be determined. Information regarding the pricing, tender and delivery procedures and the conditions to the tender offer and consent solicitation is contained in the Offer Documents.
