EASA Certifies AirCell Axxess EZ Satcom for Challengers
The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has certified AirCell's Axxess EZ satcom system for use on
Bombardier Challenger 600s, 601s and 604s.
The
Axxess EZ, which was originally introduced by AirCell late last year, was
designed to reuse the MagnaStar system's existing aircraft wiring and component
locations to reducing installation downtime. EZ also gives operators the option
of retaining key legacy system features, such as call alerting and integrated
fax capability, when replacing their MagnaStar.
The initial Challenger certification was completed aboard a CL-604 aircraft by RUAG Aerospace Services
in Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany.
The system is now being offered to Challenger operators with special, reduced pricing available for the
EASA certification package, AirCell says.
AirCell also says that its satcom systems for several additional aircraft types are in EASA's certification
process and should be completed soon. 11-14-2007. |
