General Description
Introduction
This manual is intended to provide physical, mechanical, and electrical information for use in the
planning and design of an Airtext hardware unit into an aircraft. It is not a substitute for an approved
airframe-specific maintenance manual, installation design drawing, or complete installation data package.
Attempting to install equipment by reference to this manual alone, and without first planning or designing
an installation specific to your aircraft, is not recommended. The content of this manual assumes use by
competent and qualified avionics engineering personnel and/or avionics installation specialists using
standard aviation maintenance practices in accordance with Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations
and other relevant accepted practices. It is not intended for use by individuals who lack the competencies
set forth above.
Equipment Description
Airtext solves the problem of staying connected electronically to business, friends, and family without the
high cost of a traditional internet option. Airtext allows up to 16 passengers the ability to send and receive
SMS messages anywhere in the world. Using the Iridium satellite network, we have designed a product
that allows connectivity through your cell phone while on the airplane.
