Flight Data Systems expanded its Modular Acquisition Units to include ARINC 429, ARINC 717, analog and digital inputs, and a single recorder feed.

Proven. Progressive. Purpose‑Built Flight Data Solutions. Flight Data Systems delivers fast, flexible, and future‑ready solutions across the complete flight data lifecycle—from acquisition to recording, downloading, and readouts—for commercial aviation, rotorcraft, and emerging UAM platforms. Our advanced Flight Data Acquisition Unit (FDAU) provides reliable, high‑fidelity data capture and feeds qualified flight data to SENTRY recorders—or to other OEM recorders—across a wide range of aircraft. SENTRY cockpit voice and flight data recorders are the smallest and lightest ED‑112A certified recorders available, supporting both line‑fit and retrofit installations for legacy aircraft with a convenient adaptor tray and optional RIPS. In 2026, the SENTRY line will expand to include a 25‑hour cockpit voice recorder to meet evolving mission and regulatory requirements. The HHMPI data download tool enables secure, consistent data offload from more than 50 recorder types—and remains the only licensed solution compatible with all three 25‑hour CVRs: SRVIVR25, HCR‑25, and KAPTURE 25. To close the data loop, our three‑day CVR, DLR, and FDR Readout Services provide rapid, accurate analysis to support audit readiness and regulatory compliance with confidence. Whether upgrading a single aircraft or managing a global fleet, Flight Data Systems delivers the high‑fidelity products, tools, and services operators need to fly smarter, safer, and more efficiently—today and for the missions ahead.
