"Aircraft owners will have peace of mind flying with FreeFlight's RANGR, as the company is the pioneer in ADS- B solutions."
The installation package includes FreeFlight Systems' certified RANGR Transmitter Lite ADS-B Out system, and will include all the necessary components required for installation. FreeFlight says for those customers that want to fly with the benefits of ADS-B In, FreeFlight's RANGR Transceiver Lite ADS-B In/Out system is available as an optional upgrade. FreeFlight Systems' RANGR product line is TSO-certified.
"We are excited to expand our installation capabilities to include Flight Design USA's popular aircraft," said Pete Ring, FreeFlight Systems' Director of Sales and Marketing. "By providing Flight Design USA with our certified RANGR ADS-B systems, we demonstrate once again that there are practical ADS-B solutions for all aircraft."
