Spidertxt

Two-way global texting

With spidertracks you can text anyone, anywhere in the world via the Iridium satellite network.

It’s simple. Texts can be sent between the pilot and operations base via the website or through the website on to other cellphones on the ground or in the air – from anywhere in the world.

Texts are sent using a Windows compatible PDA equipped with easily downloadable spidertxt software via a new generation Bluetooth spider. No special keypads necessary.

Software for a range of cellphones, including the iPhone, will be released soon.

Why you need spidertxt:

• Two-way communication via the Iridium network anywhere in the world – ideal for operators working in remote regions without cellphone cover who need to communicate with their operations base or family, wherever they are.
• Operations bases can manage aircraft, update jobs, task pilots, via messages from the website to the pilot’s PDA.
• Can send and receive texts to and from normal cellphones on the ground, routed via the spidertracks server.
• Less expensive than satellite voice communication.
• No special keypads required – works with Windows PDAs.
• Texts sent via Short Burst Data work even when the signal is weak.
• Simple to use for pilots and those on the ground.
• 100% global cover – spidertxt will let you communicate from everywhere.
