Having started life mainly focused on the airline sector, Arinc (Booth No. N4221) has further expanded its horizons into business aviation, especially so since the U.S.-based group opened its international division in the UK back in 2000. Since the EBACE show in May, Arinc Direct has added more than 50 business aircraft to the international fleet it supports. Here at the NBAA convention, the company is launching an iPad application, which will provide access to its Arinc Direct flight-planning tools.

Arinc plans to make its electronic flight bag technology, developed for major carriers such as Cathay Pacific, available in the bizav sector. And now some of the technology transfer is going back in the other direction, with the company planning to make available for commercial airliners the Wi-Fi services it currently provides for business jets.
