Global Coverage Closer for Free In-flight TV
Honeywell (Booth No. 7041) has introduced an upgrade to its satellite television system for business jets to allow operators to receive free-to-air satellite TV in China, India and Russia, thus matching the service available on the ground.
With the AIS-2000 system users can now receive free-to-air
TV via the Apstar6 satellite (Eastern China), Eutelsat W4 satellite (Russia) and Insat4B satellite (India). Users of that system can already receive free-to-air TV over Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The system can support up to six independent receivers for individual passenger viewing and control.

Meanwhile operators of the original Honeywell AIS-1000 system are able to update their receiver software via the Internet.
