AFIRS will enable real-time flight following and 24/7 connectivity between the aircraft and operations through the Iridium satellite communications system. The carrier will also utilize AMA's other services including engine trending, airframe and engine exceedances, and Out, Off, On and In times.

"This particular customer will be able to track its aircraft in real time anywhere on the globe and send text messages and talk with support on the ground at all times."
AMA will provide equipment and services to the airline over a three year contract. Installations are scheduled to begin immediately.
