An air mobility system between an aircraft and a companion system, the air mobility system comprising:
- a data link configured to provide wireless communication between the companion system and the aircraft, wherein the data link is a set-aside analog channel configured to transmit audio signals that carry voice and data;
- and
- state information that is received by the companion system, wherein the state information indicates a basic state of the aircraft, and wherein the state information includes a first visual image of a cockpit of the aircraft, a second visual image of an external environment of the aircraft, an engine state of the aircraft, and a fuel state of the aircraft.
A method for providing wireless communication by an air mobility system between an aircraft and a companion system, the method comprising:
- enabling, by a companion that is part of the companion system, personalized communication between the aircraft and the companion system over a data link configured to provide the wireless communication between the companion system and the aircraft, wherein the data link is a set-aside analog channel configured to transmit audio signals that carry voice and data and the personalized communication is specific to the aircraft;
- and
- receiving state information by the companion system, wherein the state information indicates a basic state of the aircraft, and wherein the state information includes a first visual image of a cockpit of the aircraft, a second visual image of an external environment of the aircraft, an engine state of the aircraft, and a fuel state of the aircraft.
