Section I GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Quality cockpit and cabin entertainment has long been an elusive dream in general aviation. From marginal
performance to unapproved parts, pilots couldn’t enjoy the same entertainment in their aircraft as they
could in the family car.
The PAV80-Series represents such a product. This system combines a Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) player
with CD and MP3 capability with an AM/FM radio for ultimate in-flight entertainment capability.
Before installing and/or using this product, please read this manual completely. This will ensure that you
will take full advantage of all the advanced features in the PAV80.
