FlightCell Pro Communications Hub

"My husband Jim was hiking on the PCT when he experienced sudden and horrific pain. Fortunately, he was able to call me on his satellite phone. My calls to 9-1-1 and the emergency service's eventual access to his satellite phone resulted in a dramatic helicopter rescue and ambulance to Salem Hospital. He has had surgery to remove 75 cm of a strangled and gangrenous portion of his small intestine. His good physical condition and your satellite phone made the difference between life and death. The Marion County Oregon Sherriff’s office who managed the rescue said they were very impressed with the response they received from the satellite company."

The Flightcell Pro is designed to smoothly integrate one or more complementary communications options into an aircraft ICS. Based on products designed for military aircraft, Flightcell Pro is ideal for use in private or commercial aircraft.

Combine the Flightcell Pro with an Iridium 9555, or optionally with the Beam RapidSAT and Iridium phone, and you have a complete satellite phone solution that can be used with your aircraft ICS. And, you can take the phone with you when you leave the aircraft to give you dependable communications anywhere in the world.

A MP3 player or other audio source can also be connected to the Flightcell Pro providing music to the headset.

Since there is no requirement to mount the FlightCell, RapidSAT, or Iridium equipment in the aircraft, no FAA certification is required.

An external fuselage mounted antenna is recommended for use with any satellite phone in an aircraft. Modern airframes may already have a satellite antenna mounted.

It's small, rugged design combined with its high quality audio also makes the FlightCell Pro perfect for off-road racers and others needing portable communications integrated with a headset in high noise environments.

The Beam RapidSAT and Iridium satellite phone are sold separately.
