| ST 3120 Worldwide Satcom for MagnaStar | | |  Aircell is expanding its Iridium-based airborne
telecommunication product line with the new ST 3120
Satcom for MagnaStar® airborne telephone systems.
Aircell's third Iridium Satcom, the ST 3120 transceiver
accesses the 66-satellite Iridium constellation for voice
and data telecommunications. MagnaStar operators gain
seamless dual-channel worldwide Satcom service.
The two Iridium channels can be used independently or
simultaneously. Yes, you can simultaneously use
onboard transceivers for other networks - adding new
capacity or capability to a MagnaStar system.
Interfacing with the MagnaStar C-750 or C-2000 units,
the ST 3120 uses the aircraft's existing handsets and
cabin communication system. Through February 27,
2004, you can also get a free gift with your ST 3120
order. Visit http://www.aircell.com/products/prod_tran_st3120.php

| Network Optimized & Coverage Expands | | | We've been busy adding new sites and improving
performance. In 2003 Aircell activated its 134th site.
"The site hands off to all of the Nebraska sites, as well
as all of the Kansas sites," said Wes Burnett, Managing
Director of Network Engineering and Operations, "giving
us the states of Nebraska and Kansas, along with Iowa
and Illinois, with contiguous coverage." In fact, above
18,000 feet, continental U.S. cellular coverage is now
95%. Over the past 18-24 months, Aircell has made major
network improvements. These include 19 new sites, 22
new site handoffs, 120 site upgrades, and plenty of new
antennas for improved high-altitude coverage and
quality. Since we're talking numbers, did you know that
Iridium uses 66 satellites for our "pole to pole" global
coverage? Iridium has 14 spare satellites in orbit to
ensure continued worldwide service through at least
2014. See maps at http://www.aircell.com/service/serv_coverage.php

| A New Spin On Helicopter Communications | | |  An Aircell ST 3100 system provides enhanced
communications capability for helicopters - anywhere,
at any altitude, and for any mission. The first ST 3100
installation was in a Bell 430. Since then, the system
has become standard equipment in the Sikorsky S-92
Helibus Civil Transport, as well as an option for the
Sikorsky S-76. Another recent installation was in an
Agusta A109. In a recent interview with Centennial
Aviation & Business Journal, Bill Peltola, Vice
President of Sales and Marketing, noted that Aircell has
already "established some strong relationships with the
corporate helicopter community."
Helicopter operators appreciate how Aircell's new
worldwide Satcom system meets their unique needs.
Since most helicopter pilots wear headsets, you may
want an external dial capability. To fill that need, Aircell
developed a POTS (Plain Old Telephone System)
interface for the ST 3100. This lets you use an external
dialer, such as the NAT PTA12. The NAT dialer not only
provides dialing capability, you get increased headset
audio volume, helpful in a noisy helicopter. So see us
