We have a small consulting company that owns an airplane that is used
for business trips. From time to time it would be useful to be able

airport. What do we need to do to get authorization to install an
aircraft band radio at our office and use it to contact the company
airplane?

Thanks...

Cell phone.


I agree...Radio's are finicky things and are difficult and
expensive to arrange so as to work well for all ranges but Cell
phones are so reliable now that I'd say that's the way to go for
your operation. Much cheaper too. They're very handy for the crew
themselves to use for weather info, calling to lay on fuel,
hangar space, servicing...etc etc...by far the best choice I'd
say...
