Teledyne Controls is leaping into the corporate-jet passenger information marketing scene as an equipment and software integrator, promising services “so powerful you’ll think you never left the ground.” These include worldwide voice and broadband data, real-time Internet and e-mail under the umbrella SmartCabin Office.
The West Los Angeles, Calif. company takes on the likes of Honeywell, which recently announced ePaxx, and Rockwell Collins with Airshow 21, as it seeks a share of the emerging business in providing worldwide voice and broadband data products. It plans to back up its advertising slogan by concentrating on business office functions with lower-cost systems containing fewer components. “We’re not featuring in-flight entertainment or cabin environmental control…all those whistles and bells. Our focus is strictly on the airborne office environment,” said Jody Glasser, Teledyne’s senior director for advanced technology, at a company users conference held March 11 to 13 in Los Angeles.
