The Smart AviatorNighthawk Guardian Flight Deck—Is it a Disruptor?At AirVenture 2025 at Oshkosh, Nighthawk Flight Systems got a lot of attention when it showed a clean sheet integrated avionics suite called Guardian. The Guardian was an attention getter with its tight graphics, thin displays, a liberal IO that works with a large variety of third-party analog and digital avionics, plus a price tag that was said to be under $40,000. Nighthawk Flight Systems (it bought Sandel Avionics a few years ago) promised to start shipping FAA-approved (via an AML-STC) as early as December 2024. Since that's just a couple of months away, we followed up on the project with company...

Radios in ActionFrom Ground to Sky: How Icom Radios Connect Crews, Docks, and Air Traffic at AirVenture 2025Nestled in the shaded quiet of Oshkosh’s Seaplane Base, there exists a side of EAA AirVenture that many attendees never see. Unlike the bustling main grounds, the Seaplane Base operates for just one week each year, transforming from an unused shoreline into a hub of aviation activity. It takes hundreds of volunteers and days of concentrated effort to prepare the space, clean the docks, and establish the systems that make it a safe and welcoming environment for pilots and visitors alike.But what truly sets the Seaplane Base apart isn’t just its natural beauty—it’s the wa...
2025-10-0102 minRadios in ActionClear Signals, Safe Waters: Why Icom Radios are Key to Seamless Seaplane Operations at AirVenture 2025At the heart of EAA AirVenture 2025, the Seaplane Base offers a unique glimpse into aviation’s most delicate dance—where water and air meet. Unlike traditional runways, this floating airfield demands a constant balance of precision, coordination, and communication. Here, pilots don’t just rely on their own skill; they depend on an entire team of volunteers who quietly orchestrate every movement from dock to open water.The unsung backbone of this operation is communication. With dozens of aircraft and tow boats moving at once, the potential for confusion is high. That’s where Icom radios come in—bridg...

At EAA AirVenture, the world’s largest aviation gathering, the magic isn’t only in the sky but also in the unseen coordination on the ground. With hundreds of thousands of attendees and thousands of aircraft converging in one place, safety and communication are as critical as the spectacle itself. What makes the event truly remarkable is the human element: 5,000 volunteers who arrive not simply to watch but to build, organize, and sustain this massive operat...

What began in 1964 as a small group of former military pilots salvaging surplus aircraft has grown into one of the most celebrated showcases of flying history, preserving the legacy of WWII and Korean-era aviation. Yet this heritage comes with responsibility: maintaining safety, ensuring smooth operations, and bridging the gap between pilots and the public. That’s where reliable communication becomes critical.Organizations like Warbirds of America have long relied on Icom radios not just for flight coordination, bu...

Unlike the high-energy pace of the main airport grounds, the base offers a more relaxed, up-close experience with pilots and their aircraft, creating a unique connection between visitors and the world of seaplanes. Yet behind the calm surface lies an immense logistical challenge: managing people, planes, and boats while ensuring smooth, safe operations on the water.Communication is the backbone of this effort, and Icom radios play a central ro...

This watery extension of the world’s largest fly-in is where aircraft meet the elements—and where communication becomes the ultimate safety tool. Unlike traditional fields, the seaplane base operates in a dynamic environment where pilots, volunteers, and boats must work in harmony. Without seamless radio transmissions, even small lapses could turn into major hazards.For decades, Icom radios have been the backbone of that safety net. Known for their durability and reliab...
