Satphones On G150s

International Communications Group (ICG) will supply Iridium satellite telephone systems on GulfStream Aerospace’s G150 business jet. The Gulfstream aircraft will be fitted with ICG’s ICS-200 dual-channel Iridium systems, providing two-way, air-to-ground voice, fax and data connections, Newport News, Va.-based ICG said. The ICS-200 incorporates two independent Iridium transceivers and an internal cabin telecommunications unit (CTU), with a small omni-directional passive Iridium antenna. The G150 entered service in August 2006. More
