Victoria, BC Canada – November 16, 2015 – Latitude Technologies, a global supplier of flight data monitoring, flight tracking, and Satcom solutions for business and transport category aircraft, is very pleased to announce that Duncan Aviation is building the first STC for Latitude’s DL150 SDU (Satellite Data Unit). The DL150 STC will be added to Duncan’s Challenger 601 FANS 1/A+ STC program.
The DL150 SDU provides the satellite connectivity for a FANS 1/A+ CPDLC and ACARS messaging system allowing air to ground information to meet the requirements of AC20-140B. The DL150 is designed to meet TSO-159b. The device acts as a communications link for a FANS compliant Communication Management Unit (CMU) via ARINC 741 protocols. DL150 design is based on Latitude’s legendary SkyNode S100 transceiver that is the toughest and most reliable data satcom tracker in the industry today.
“We are very excited about working with Latitude Technologies on this program,” said Mark Francetic, Duncan Aviation Regional Avionics Manager. “Latitude has been great to work with throughout the development of this STC. Their unit is straightforward to install and a good solution.”
