Description

The project aims to conduct a total of 130 flight trials in order to demonstrate cost-innovative solutions for the provision to general aviation users of network business-to-business information services, including MET services, air traffic control and aeronautical information management (AIM) services. Specifically, the project foresees implementing a low-cost Flight Operation Centre (FOC) solution for general aviation users connected through the internet, as well as a low-cost cockpit solution based on Electronic Flight Bags using communications options such as WiFi, 3G/4G, iridium Satcom and ACARS.
