The ATC system got a massive overhaul. You can now interact with ATC more realistically than ever before. Start your flight with a radio check, request your clearance, get the altimeter and weather updates from ATC and verify your current position with the controller. You can even report a ...
Radio Navigation & Landing / LRA-900+ Low Range Radio Altimeter Share The low range altimeter (LRA) is a landing radio altimeter that measures the distance from the aircraft to the ground during approach and landing phases of your flights. It incl...
5G can handle 1 million devices in a single square kilometer. This precision will help reduce the noise in 5G radio waves. This is very important for future use as well, because the number of devices connected to cellular technology increases by a staggering 25% each year. ...
There are several different slices of mid-band being used in the US. Some of them are controversial; the airline industry has been complaining about anything from 3.7 to 4.0GHz as being too close to the frequency of their radio altimeters, which run at 4.2 to 4.4GHz. But that's not the...

The GPWS is a computer that alerts the pilot of the terrain or any other obstacle that can lead to a CFIT. The computer receives data from various aircraft sensors, such as the radio altimeter, barometric altimeter,flapsensors,landing gearsensors, etc. Out of these, the radio altimeter is ...
That changed so that you could listen to multiple devices through one account. The drawback to that system is that you can only access satellite radio through one device at a time. That might be fine for an individual, but what about a family full of people who love satellite radio? If...
It is not an accident that a TCAS is inhibited at low altitudes. In fact, this ispart of the designof the technology. This is primarily because the system relies on radio altimeter data, which measures altitude and becomes less accurate near the ground. This could potentially result in unrel...
