Minimize AOG Downtime

Avoid the Aircraft on Ground (AOG) downtime and expense that results from trial and error testing and component swapping.

Bird's FH-AV-BASIC, FlightHawk™ RF Aviation Basic Test Kit provides rapid and accurate testing of multiple antenna and cable systems in complex airframe systems. Our Cable and Antenna Analyzer assist aircraft maintenance technicians with commissioning, maintenance and fault-finding of ground-to-air radios, airborne radios, repeaters, antennas, antenna combiners and transmission cables.

FlightHawk Basic is excellent starter kit for the Novice to Expert, Bird’s easy to use aviation testing software enables maintenance personnel to test and verify all the radio systems in your fleet. By utilizing an inspection technique called frequency domain reflectometer (FDR), you can test and verify the antennas and cables in your RF system individually or as a complete system.

If you want to expand your testing capabilities, this special designed case has placeholders for Bird’s wideband power sensor, needed cabling and adapters –specifically to fit avionics power measurement needs. Also prevents FOD (foreign object damage) from unaccounted equipment. *See upgrade options.
