1 INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing this quality product from Flightline. This transceiver has been designed and manufactured in Japan specifically for Ultralights, Gliders and General Aviation Aircraft and Helicopters with size and power consumption as the main considerations. Ease of operation was another primary achievement. Please follow this manual closely to ensure optimum performance, we do hope you have many hours of trouble free communication and safe flying.
