Commercialization• Market GAAINS and SATS-Net Data to the GA industry
i.e. existing and emerging FAA certified aircraft, experimental and existing avionics manufactures.
• Coupled with the commercialization of SATS-Net, GAAINS will augment the SATS-Net membership
• GAAINS can be incorporated into existing and emerging fractional aircraft ownership programs such as NetJets to keep busy executives connected to their offices
• Hi – Jack aircraft tracking and pilot authentication system • Partnership with engine manufactures and service centers

GAAINS Future Product Commercialization
• Satellite and modem, testing, research and integration.• Develop advanced “BLACK BOX” real time streaming safety applications • Development of predictive analysis module. • Integration with engine monitoring systems to stream engine data • Integration with onboard bus to stream A/C configuration data • Stream live onboard images • Develop user interfaces:
– Large area PDA’s – Existing displays – Voice Recognition
• Integration of High Speed Bus Technologies & Telematics – BlueTooth, CanBus, 802.11b, etc.
• Investigate Security (SAFE-SATS)
