Overview
Intended for installation on long-range executive jet and turbo-prop aircraft capable of operating in Europe, Asia and South America where VHF communication is available over a much wider band. Only 8.5" high, yet provides good performance without the added drag of taller blade communication antennas. Skydrol and rain erosion resistant, the optional CI 211-1-L offers leading edge protection as shown in outline drawing. The CI 211-1 has been re-tested and upgraded to the new RTCA DO-160D environmental requirements.
