What is it?
The AIRSAT 1 single channel satellite communications system developed by Honeywell revolutionizes satellite communications service for private aircraft. For owners or operators of light aircraft, communication options have been limited-until now. AIRSAT 1 provides two-way communications over a single digital channel via Iridium's global satellite system.

Why do you need it?
Any equipped aircraft, flying over any point on the globe, can now communicate with the ground or with any other Iridium equipped aircraft.

Features
A single box system, AIRSAT 1 comprises an Iridium Transceiver Unit, advanced digital handset, and a low-gain, top-mounted ARINC 761 blade antenna. AIRSAT 1 weighs 15 lbs and can be installed on aircraft of virtually any type.
AIRSAT 1 provides high-quality voice communication, enhanced with GSM telephone capabilities such as voice mail and call forwarding as part of the standard Iridium subscriber package.
For the first time, establishing reliable voice contact from small aircraft is as easy as dialing a telephone. In addition, you and your passengers enjoy global accessibility and two-way communication from anywhere in the air to anywhere on the ground.
