Content Body

Mid Continent Controls (MCC; Booth 2050) has completed development of Aurora, its fourth-generation in-flight entertainment solution, the company announced here at NBAA 2016. Aurora includes a ground-based communications compatible “N” series router and the Aurora Map/Media server. It delivers an increased Wi-Fi throughput, highly detailed interactive moving map, flight status information, optional Sirius XM integration and multimedia delivery to personal electronic device.

Kansas-based MCC is “actively working with a number of OEM/MRO partners that have expressed interest in the Aurora platform,” said MCC general manager Mike Freel. “We are continuing to develop additional features that will allow an end-user to upgrade in sections over time without having to do a complete remove/replace.”

Future planned additions to the Aurora platform include a completely integrated and easily installable cabin management system solution.
