Aircraft Services Introduces New MAX Entertainment System,
Offers Quick Turn Installation During Routine Inspection
Raytheon Aircraft
Services (RAS) has announced a new program designed to make it
easier for customers to upgrade their aircraft’s
entertainment system.
The program called MAX Entertainment System, allows Beechcraft
King Air, Beechcraft Premier I, Beechjet, Diamond and all legacy
and current Hawker series aircraft operators to choose between
pre-packaged tier options that include components such as XM
Satellite Radio, JetMap II, Honeywell DVD player(s), flat-panel
color monitor(s), Sennheiser wireless headset(s), wireless remote
control and an optional speaker package.
This new factory-approved installation takes substantially less
time and occurs concurrently with a routine inspection or other
maintenance events. Equipment is installed as a field-approved
modification via FAA Form 337. Package pricing includes all
components and any required engineering.
“Customers who have been putting off an upgrade because of
time constraints can now have an entire entertainment system
installed during their aircraft’s scheduled downtime,”
explained Skip Madsen, vice president, Raytheon Aircraft
Services.
“For example, in as little as nine days, a King Air can be
equipped so that passengers can enjoy XM Radio broadcasts, watch
DVDs, listen to CDs, receive real-time weather data, view moving
maps, and get updates on the aircraft’s flight status. It is
all accomplished during the aircraft’s single- or
multiple-phase inspection.” MAX Entertainment is available
through all Raytheon Aircraft Services facilities.
