EMS’ Aspire 200 LG system is designed to transform an aircraft into an airborne hot spot that allows pilots and passengers to use Wi-fi enabled devices including BlackBerrys, iPhones and iPads to access a multitude of applications.

   “The flexibility and scalable architecture of the Aspire system, when combined with data acceleration and Wi-Fi capabilities, provides the versatility to meet the needs of our clients. Our customer’s aircraft are currently being outfitted with the Aspire 200 LG broadband system and augmented with a dual channel Iridium satcom and we anticipate that we will receive STC approval through the U.S. Federal Aviation Authority early in the fourth quarter of 2011,” Banyan Avionics Director Brian Wilson said in a statement.
