Duncan Aviation Releases Field Guide on Wi-Fi for Business Aircraft

LINCOLN, NEB. — Duncan Aviation answers common issues and questions about Wi-Fi installations for business aircraft in a new field guide entitled “Making Sense of Wi-Fi: An Operator’s Guide to Aircraft Internet Options.” The guide explores the various topics operators face when selecting Wi-Fi for business aircraft, and includes a comparison of the major service providers and main equipment options for business aircraft.

“Wi-Fi is a hot topic for business aircraft operators, and we field many questions,” says Steve Elofson, Avionics Installation Rep at Duncan Aviation’s Lincoln, Neb., full-service facility. “We’re often asked what solution is right for each aircraft. What’s more important are the needs and expectations of the passengers.”

When operators begin to investigate aircraft Wi-Fi options, comparing the various systems, capabilities and coverage zones can get complicated. Aircraft size, service plans, certification requirements, installing agency experience and capabilities also present additional points for consideration.

“Much like choosing a cell phone company, data connection speeds, network availability, equipment costs and data plans all factor into the equation,” says Elofson.

Written by industry experts, the field guide addresses these topics and more, and includes coverage maps and a system comparison chart. To download a copy, please visit www.DuncanAviation.aero/fieldguides.
