RAF Falcons - Parachute Display Team

In addition to supplying communications products in all market sectors at ground level, Sonic also provides communications solutions for airborne use at heights up to 12,000 feet, to allow organisations such as the RAF Falcons to intercommunicate between the aircraft, ground crew and the descending display team, both during free-fall and under canopy. The precision display provided by parachute display teams such as the RAF Falcons, now relies on the quality and reliability provided by the radio systems and accessories Sonic Communications (Int) Ltd supply.Similar systems, including air to ground video transmission equipments, are now supplied to both commercial and Military parachute training establishments.


 

Sonic go onwards and upwards with the RAF Falcons Parachute Display Team!

Continuing the wonderful relationship Sonic Communications (INT) Ltd has with the RAF Falcons, it was agreed last week to continue supporting the Falcons through 2008.

Again, Sonic will update and supply the RAF Falcons with communications and improved Microwave links. You can find out more about Sonics involvement in the RAF Falcons 2008 brochure.
