The FAA issued an STC to Associated Air Center for installation of a controller-pilot datalink (CPDLC) system in a Boeing BBJ, as part of a Future Air Navigation System (Fans) upgrade. The upgrade includes a new FMS, Acars, cockpit voice recorder, VHF com antenna, GPS antenna and Inmarsat satcom antenna, as well as upgrades to the BBJ’s existing satcom. The work was completed at Associated Air Center’s Dallas repair station, aided by the company’s in-house organization delegation authorization. The company also holds STCs for Fans/CPDLC for the 757-200 and 737 Classic.
