Thierry Dubois is a freelance writer specializing in helicopters, business aviation and aerospace technology. He earned a degree in fluid dynamics from an engineering school in Toulouse, France in the mid-1990s. At an unexpected crossroads, he found his first job in journalism. In 1997, he started working for French aerospace weekly Air &amp; Cosmos in Paris. This lasted until 2000, when he moved south to Lyons. He then became a freelancer, working for various aerospace publications and has been part of the AIN team since late 2000. In addition to writing about business aviation, Thierry shares responsibility for the rotorcraft section. He also is a regular on-site writer for AIN’s daily editions at international airshows such as the Paris, Farnborough, Dubai and Singapore shows, as well as at EBACE in Geneva.
In 2007, he won the Honeywell award for “Best systems or technology submission” at the Aerospace journalist of the year awards. In 2013, he won an Aerospace Media Award for the "Best Safety, Training &amp; Simulation Submission."
In other activities, Thierry moderates international conferences on aviation technology topics. Thierry is married and has three children, who seem to begin enjoying the mountains–as their parents do.

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia-based consultancy firm MAZ Aviation and satellite airtime provider Satcom1 (Booth 821) are joining forces to design a new, faster satcom system for the Airbus ACJ and Boeing BBJ. According to the partnership agreement, the system will be based on Ka- and Ku- band solutions and will offer greater bandwidth for airborne communications. Inmarsat’s SwiftBroadband and its safety services features will be used for cockpit communications needs.

 


“We will develop a solution that accommodates the future bandwidth expectations,” said Karina Larsen, founder and vice president of partnerships for Satcom1.

 


“Today, connectivity is an integral part of our clients’ daily activities, and the availability of a reliable fast communication service is taken for granted,” said MAZ Group founder and chairman Mohammed Alzeer. “This partnership with Satcom1 will ensure that we will be able to deliver to our clients leading-edge satellite communications services that are fast, reliable and cost-effective, thus transforming communications in the skies and accommodating heavy data transmission.” MAZ Aviation is located at the GDC Technics booth (603).

New developments and products in avionics, specifically about aircraft electronics in the cockpit.
