Gregory Darling, Managing Director comments;  'AST were one of the first independent companies to recognise the potential for satellite communication needs around the world.  As a result we have lived through and grown whilst all of the major developments in the Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) industry have taken place. 

 

 

The benefits of this continue today, and alongside the experience and knowledge that 20 years in the industry bring, AST have built and maintained strong relationships with all the major global satellite communication suppliers.' "  Company Statement

 

 

AST Systems donated airtime to Patrick and Richard for their Inmarsat IsatPhone Pro (which Patrick had previously purchased from AST Systems, for their Gobi Expedition). It allowed them to call, text and update twitter from wherever they were in Papua New Guinea.
