ARINC’s Cargo Airlines Communications Workshop 2009 will be held Wednesday September 23 in Miami, FL. Cargo airlines already use ARINC’s HF Voice radio service. The firm wants to share with them the many benefits of other communications solutions in its portfolio, such as HF Datalink, Iridium Voice and Data services, and Global Cargo Tracking,  The workshop will feature presentations on eight technologies by ARINC staff and representatives from other firms. One featured topic will be ARINC’s new PASSage system, which extends the reach of portable ground radio systems. “PASSage is an interoperability network solution that enables all ground operations personnel to freely communicate, whether using radio, phone, Voice over IP (VoIP), or Push-To-Talk (PTT)—either locally or remote. That can streamline communications, save a lot of time and reduce mistakes.
