Blue Sky Network Debuts HawkEye 7200 Geo-Fenced Reporting Capabilities

Anyone familiar with GPS-enabled, location-based services available on many smartphones will appreciate the benefits from the new geo-fencing condition capability, dubbed advanced variable response (AVR), offered by Blue Sky Network on its HawkEye 7200 portable satellite tracking unit.

Blue Sky (Booth No. 2609) business development vice president John Peterson said AVR allows operators to set certain responses when a helicopter equipped with the Hawkeye 7200 passes through specific locations. This provides flight department managers greater control by emphasizing the most pertinent flight data for given mission parameters and “ultimately making fleet management easier, safer and less expensive.
