LINCOLN, NEB — Duncan Aviation is updating two books in its popular Straight Talk series, Straight Talk about WAAS and Straight Talk About Satcom & HSD. Available online, the books provide insight into the complex worlds of Wide Area Augmentation Systems (WAAS) and aircraft communication including satellite communications and high-speed data (HSD).

"Our Satcom and WAAS Straight Talk books have been extremely popular with operators trying to weigh their options and make the smartest decisions possible," says John Slieter, Vice President of Service and Modification Sales with Duncan Aviation. "These topics continue to change and we keep operators abreast of those changes through our Straight Talk Updates. We have been publishing Straight Talk books and documents since the 1990s addressing complicated avionics mandates and options. Our goal with this series has been to educate the customer so he or she can be proud of the decisions they ultimately make concerning their aircraft."

The entire Straight Talk lineup, including the updated publications and previous publications, can be found at www.DuncanAviation.aero/straighttalk. As always, the information is free.

"To make this series most useful to those working in business aviation, we want to hear from the operators," Slieter continues. "We want them to tell us what topics they want to learn about and what information would help them be even more successful. They can send their ideas through the Straight Talk pages or by calling any of our technical experts."
