5. WHY SUPERAWOS? FAA APPROVED AWOS Plus A FULL SERVICE AUTOMATED UNICOM FOR A FRACTION OF THE PRICE OF TRADITIONAL AWOS!

6. FAA SUPERAWOSCERTIFICATION

7. TO INSTALL Flexible siting requirements No waiting for frequency allocation No digging up your airport Installs in just a few hours Serves pilots the day it is installed TO SUPPORT Wireless Satellite Communications Eliminates land-line installation and ongoing maintenance costs Provides long-line weather data for pilot flight planning Modern, internal self-monitoring and remote reporting SIMPLER & FAR LESS EXPENSIVETHAN TRADITIONAL AWOS A COST-EFFECTIVE SOLUTION FOR ANY AIRPORT

9. SUPERAWOS ARCHITECTURE

10. AUTOMATICALLY GREETS PILOTS • DETECTSAIRCRAFT IN THE AREA • INFORMS PILOTS • Of the presence of SuperAWOS • How to use SuperAWOS • PROMOTES YOUR AIRPORT “Good Morning. Potomac Airfield, automated unicom. Click your mic three times for an advisory, four times for a radio check”

11. PILOTS ACTIVATE BY SIMPLE MICROPHONE CLICKS • Microphone clicks are simple • Clicks never tie up the unicom frequency • Simple actually works, every time SIMPLE ALWAYS WORKS

12. ADAPTIVE AUTOMATED ADVISORYPatented • REPLIES with ONLY what the pilot needs • KEEPS UNICOM CLEAR by giving ONLYoperationally relevant information • ADJUSTS TRANSMISSION CONTENT • To Frequency Congestion • To what IS relevant to flight operations

13. WHY ADVISORY WIND?PILOTS HAVE TWO WIND QUESTIONS: QUESTION #1“WHICH RUNWAY SHOULD I USE?” “Winds from the north suggest using the most northern facing runway” QUESTION #2“WHAT SURFACE CONDITIONS SHOULD I EXPECT?” “Prepare for gusting cross-wind conditions at the runway surface” AVERAGE WINDLIKE TRADITIONAL AWOS REAL TIME WINDLIKE A WINDSOCK ONLY SUPERAWOS ANSWERS BOTH

14. AUTOMATED RADIO CHECK • A Pilot’s ONLY contact with the world IS BY RADIO Before takeoff, the pilot MUST know if their aircraft radio is… Transmitting anything? Anything UNDERSTANDABLE? Receiving anything? Anything UNDERSTANDABLE? • Pilots transmits a test message • Pilot receives ‘radio echo’ back of their own transmission • Echo Radio Check Confirms • Transmitter: POWER & MODULATION • Receiver: SENSITIVITY & CLARITY

15. OTHER UNIQUE SAFETY FEATURES • PILOTS STAYING ON UNICOM CAN HEAR OTHER TRAFFIC • Reduces chances of mid-air & runway incursion • ALERTS PILOTS TO AREA TRAFFIC • Other air traffic in the area on unicom • ADVISES CONDITIONS FAVORING A SPECIFIC RUNWAY • When wind & traffic conditions make it clear • ADVISES PREFERRED CALM WIND RUNWAY • When wind & traffic conditions allow • WARNS DENSITY ALTITUDE WHEN CRITICAL • When critical to landing operations And, • Added to radio check BEFORE takeoff • ALERTS TO CRITICAL TEMPERATURE • When surface freezing likely

16. REQUIREMENTS FOR AUTOMATED UNICOM WHAT IS ‘ADAPTIVE?’ • SYSTEM MUST PRIORITIZE WHAT IT TRANSMITS Based on Constantly Changing conditions - from second to second • Frequency congestion from many aircraft • What IS important to flight operations • What IS NOT important to flight operations TO MINIMIZE INTRUSION ON ANY BUSY UNICOM Automated UnicomMUST BE DYNAMICALLY ADAPTIVE UNICOM IS TOO IMPORTANT TO CREATE NEEDLESS CONGESTION

17. REMOTE ACCESS • INTERNET • TELEPHONE • NADIN & WMSCR NO EXTRA CHARGE NO KIDDING!
