Mecaer Aviation Group has designed and developed its In-Flight Entertainment Enhanced Lounge (I-FEEL™) system that is now available for installation on most medium and heavy helicopter models. It will be EASA-certificated within first quarter 2010, with FAA certification to follow shortly thereafter. 

 The I-FEEL system offers users a fully customized entertainment and cabin management system that MAG believes greatly enhances passenger comfort and quality of helicopter flight.

This system has been designed to provide the ultimate in entertainment and functionality for helicopter owners and passengers.  This unique system can be adapted to suit any type of helicopter currently on the market, as well as fixed wing aircraft.

 Its core system is based on a Windows PC architecture that can control communications, audio and video playback, cabin functions, and passenger settings. 

The system integrates an interphone communication system (ICS) with collective and selective communications, a built-in hard disc to store audio and video files  and any number of audio and video systems including, but not limited to, moving maps, CD and MP3 player, I-Pod, DVD player, laptop and camera. User friendly touch-screens, with customizable icons, provide all passengers with direct control of intercommunication and entertainment utilities.

The system’s “open architecture” allows also a variety of other functions for the integration of different mission equipments on board the aircraft.

 In addition to corporate/VIP applications, the I-FEEL system is particularly adaptable for installation on special mission aircraft such as law enforcement, surveillance,  Search & Rescue, EMS, fire fighting and ISR (intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance) missions,  to integrate on board avionics with other mission equipment  such as FLIR, video camera, search radar and data link systems.
