Realizing Benefits

The Harris Data Comm team outreach services will motivate Part 121 and Part 135 aircraft operators to take advantage of Data Comm through an avionics equipage incentive program, providing direct economic savings in making aircraft “DataComm ready” while stimulating a faster transition to NextGen operations. The benefits? Time and fuel savings through optimized routes and procedures, increased safety through reduced voice communication errors, improved airport capacity and throughput plus reduced noise and emissions. Real benefits. Real results. That’s Data Comm.

Enabling NextGen

It’s not just a dream. It’s reality. Data Comm utilizes the proven FANS 1/A+ (Future Air Navigation Services) over VDL (VHF Digital Link) Mode 2 technology in use today worldwide. FANS 1/A+ includes the Controller Pilot Data Link Communication (CPDLC) application, which provides the capability for pilots and controllers to communicate through a standardized set of messages. Data Comm enables trajectory based routing, increased safety through fewer communication errors, and more efficient arrival and departure routes. The bottom line? Realizing the full potential of NextGen for generations to come.
