Raytheon adds Aircell Satcom to King Airs

By General Aviation News Staff · March 11, 2005 ·

LOUISVILLE, Colo. — The Beechcraft King Air 350 now features the AirCell ST 3100 Satellite Telecommunications System as standard equipment. The system also is a factory option on the King Air B200.

In addition to its telephone capability, the ST 3100 system acts as a global communications link, providing in-flight services such as graphical weather, messaging and ATC information through Universal Avionics’ UniLink; 24-hour medical service through MedAire’s MedLink; and real time news, sports, and financial data through Rockwell Collins’ Airshow Network. The ST 3100 system operates on the Iridium Satellite System, providing all-altitude, all-latitude coverage throughout the world.

AirCell products are currently on the Beechcraft Premier I, Hawker 400XP and Hawker 800XP.
