Satcom system maker TrueNorth Avionics last month introduced a two-channel airborne telephone system for the cabin called Simphone Prelude that is designed for installation in light jets and turboprops. It is based on Simphone equipment for large jets and features the company’s ClearCall technology, menu-driven handsets and all-digital architecture. The system can also be upgraded to provide operators with Inmarsat satcom, broadband data, Wi-Fi and the like.

“With the Simphone Prelude, more executives can manage their business communications from the air, no matter what class of corporate aircraft they fly,” said TrueNorth CEO Mark van Berkel. “Enhancing their current capabilities, the Simphone Prelude also ensures that an operator’s airborne telephone will never become obsolete.”
