Say Again

The function everyone loves

With a button push, AIR Com replays the last incoming transmissions.

This unique function is an excellent safety function. It reduces channel congestion and helps everyone to understand and listen carefully.

Dual Watch Function

Listen to two channels at once

The dual watch function (the monitor function) allows you to listen to both the active and the standby channels. Special care has been taken to design the dual watch function with the best possible sound. 

Unique with AIR Com: The volumes of both channels can be adjusted independently, making it easy to differentiate incoming transmissions.

 

Better Sound

AIR Com’s best feature

Our AIR Com (AC-1) features an all-new audio design that delivers crystal-clear sound. Its all-digital audio system allows unprecedented functions, like the “Say Again” replay function.

Its flexible audio setup allows two independent audio configurations. This is handy in all aircraft where the microphone setup is often changed, such as motor gliders or open-cockpit aircraft. 

Easy to install

Easy mounting, robust connectors, small size

AIR Com can be installed directly with the AIR Control Display in the panel. If desired, it can be mounted remotely in the aircraft with cables.

Intercom

Robust and feature-rich intercom

Its integrated intercom function can serve up to four seats with clear audio. If desired, the intercom allows the flight crew to be isolated from the passengers’ chatter.

Integrates seamlessly

Loaded with audio I/O, switches, and interfaces.

AIR COM features three fully customizable microphone inputs that also support dynamic microphones. It has two headset audio outputs (up to four headsets) and a speaker output. 

Four discrete inputs allow the connection of buttons and switches. Push-to-talk and many other functions, such as channel flipflop, audio configuration changes, intercom activation, and the “Say Again” function, can be triggered.

In addition to an ACD-57 or even without an ACD-57, AIR COM can be remote-controlled. It works seamlessly with many third-party systems, such as GARMIN® G3X touch® or Dynon® SkyView® Flightdeck systems.
