Not long after I wrote today's blog about AeroMobile being as yet unable to receive line-fit offerable status on Airbus aircraft (while the airframer allegedly is flogging only OnAir), I spoke with Panasonic Avionics vice-president, global communications services David Bruner, who revealed the following (which I've pulled into an article for the new Flight Global IFE&C channel):
"Yes Mary, we are having difficulty receiving offerability for both eXPhone and eXConnect despite several customer requests. Panasonic is working hard with Airbus to try to work through these issues for the sake of the customers."
Panasonic Avionics is a primary distributor of AeroMobile hardware, and offers it to airlines under the brand eXPhone as part of its suite of connectivity solutions, which also includes the Ku-band-based eXConnect high-speed connectivity system.
