TORONTO, Oct. 04, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Star Navigation Systems Group Ltd. (CSE:SNA) (CSE:SNA.CN) (“Star” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that it has now entered into successful commercial operation with its first wide-body operator in the Middle-East, having received the final Supplementary Type Certificate (“STC”) for the operation of the STAR-A.D.S. ® SSU-G3 on an Airbus A310, (see Press Releases May 3, 2016 and April 19, 2017).
The STAR-A.D.S. ® system offers many unique and essential services to its operator; proactively monitoring the state of the aircraft via proven SATCOM transmission during the flight, tracking of aircraft at frequent intervals, and the transmission of raw aircraft data via GSM for flight operations efficiency. The captured and transmitted aircraft information is readily available on a secure web-based application, accessible anywhere in the world 24/7 to the operator of the aircraft.
The STAR-A.D.S. ® system is designed for routine over-the-air updates (“OTA”) via GSM integration and will be used to address the operators’ ever-changing needs through its web based interactive dashboard. With this capability, the system can receive software updates to capture and transmit more aircraft information, providing airline personnel with operational over-view support by delivering key and critical aircraft performance and diagnostics data in real time as the operator requires.
