We look forward to working closely with our airline partners to integrate Edge+ seamlessly into their fleets.”\n \n\n The AFIRS Edge+ is a direct, plug-and-play replacement for legacy WQAR systems that are reaching end-of-life as older cellular networks sunset. As the industry’s first 5G-enabled WQAR, the AFIRS Edge+ delivers the bandwidth and reliability required to meet next-generation data demands—from advanced predictive analytics to reducing ACARS costs. With this EASA approval in hand, FTG will expand regulatory compliance to additional jurisdictions in the coming months, enabling broader market access for Edge+ across Airbus A319/320/321 operators worldwide.\n \n\n\n ABOUT FIRAN TECHNOLOGY GROUP CORPORATION\n \n\n\n FTG is an aerospace and defense electronics product and subsystem supplier to customers around the globe.
