HOUSTON, TX--(Marketwire - May 12, 2010) - In response to the needs of its clients, Universal Weather and Aviation, Inc. is expanding its UVdatalink® global VHF and SATCOM ACARS aviation data link service to now provide support to all Honeywell™ AFIS®-equipped aircraft.
"Now those operators with AFIS-equipped aircraft that previously had to use another provider for data link services, can take advantage of the benefits of using UVdatalink in conjunction with the other services they receive through Universal -- such as online flight planning, UVair® fuel, Universal AviationSM ground support, and complete trip support -- giving them the simplicity of having just one number to call for all services and consolidated billing," said Randy Stephens, Senior Director, Specialty Services. "Our clients have indicated that there is great value in having a one-stop shop for all trip support services. We're happy to now be able to offer that same value and convenience to AFIS-equipped aircraft operators that our other UVdatalink customers have taken advantage of for years."
"Operators of AFIS-equipped aircraft now have more choice in selecting a data link communications provider," said Stephens. "This opens up a large section of the data link market to us, as UVdatalink can now support the majority of business aviation operators worldwide who fly ACARS-equipped aircraft."
UVdatalink is a host provider of Global VHF and SATCOM ACARS data link communication services. With direct communications to all major networks, including VHF, telephony, and SATCOM, UVdatalink allows users to send and receive messages in a variety of formats, and to most any communication device.
