situational awareness and efficiency for mission-critical flight operations. Sikorsky’s integration of Skytrac’s connectivity avionics enables S-92 operators to meet the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers (IOGP) 690 standards for offshore helicopter operators.
This upgraded solution will utilize the Iridium Certus and cellular networks to acquire HUMS and FDR data in real time and offload it autonomously via Wi-Fi, cellular, or Iridium Certus networks, depending on availability. With 99.9% global uptime, Iridium Certus connectivity will empower S-92 operators to receive real-time HUMS and FDM data no matter where they
are flying, providing unmatched visibility of the aircraft and its operational state. This solution will provide reliable, global and cost-effective connectivity for real-time data transmission aboard all S-92 aircraft interested in harnessing its capabilities.
As a line-fit option from Sikorsky’s factory, customers will have the option to include this new HUMS solution upon ordering their new aircraft. For those already operating the S-92, an aftermarket option with supplemental type certificates (STC) and installation kits will also be available directly from Skytrac.
