The Airborne Internet Consortium (AIC) was a working group of small companies that formed a non-profit corporation in 2004 to foster research and development and advocacy of IP networked enabled communications for aviation. The AIC's purpose was to define, develop and promote common systems elements necessary to deploy comprehensive aviation based digital datalink capabilities throughout the United States using evolving internet capabilities.[1] The adoption of commercially available, common internet based systems is discussed as an enabling concept within the US Department of Transportation's Next Generation (NextGen) Aviation Operations Concept of Operations.[2] Expansion of internet based providers is called for in the US Department of Transportation's 2022 update of the National Airspace System (NAS)".[3]

With all types of devices connected to the Internet (known as the Internet of Things [IoT]) and advances in wireless technology, nearly all operators and vehicles can be connected from nearly any location at any time".
