SkyRunner Equips MK 3.2 Aircraft with INVISIO Intercom System
SkyRunner, LLC, a manufacturer of light sport aircraft, has integrated the INVISIO Intercom system across its entire aircraft fleet, enhancing communication capabilities for government and defense sectors.
INVISIO Intercom System Deployment
The SkyRunner team is enhancing its MK 3.2 military-grade aircraft through strategic partnerships with leading defense innovators. The system provides unparalleled audio performance in extremely noisy environments and the ability to communicate on any radio.
INVISIO has equipped SkyRunner aircraft with a complete communication system, featuring INVISIO's V-Series Gen II control units. These units utilize artificial intelligence algorithms to deliver crystal-clear communication via the lightweight and rugged INVISIO T7 headsets. Linked via INVISIO IntelliCable® with an advanced intercom system, this setup allows SkyRunner pilots to seamlessly communicate clearly on any type of public safety or military radio, as well as mobile phones.
Pilots and passengers can now enjoy clear communication and low ambient noise levels during flight, with smart override algorithms ensuring critical Air Traffic Control calls are never missed. The system also allows for enjoying music or making phone calls.
The project was led by SkyRunner's Chief Strategy Officer, Michael Jensen, who had prior experience with INVISIO systems from his service as a retired USAF Lieutenant Colonel and Special Operator.
"Installing INVISIO as standard equipment on all SkyRunners mirrors our consistent commitment to best-in-the-world technology that we use to curate every part of every aircraft."
- Stewart Hamel, SkyRunner CEO
