HHMPI Frequently Asked Questions
What types of users and aircraft is the HHMPI designed for?
The HHMPI is a portable, battery-powered tool designed for maintenance technicians and avionics teams who need to download and verify data from Flight Data Recorders (FDR) and Cockpit Voice Recorders (CVR). It is particularly well-suited for operators of commercial, corporate, and private aircraft configured for more than 10 passengers.
What are the operational advantages of using the HHMPI?
The HHMPI operates independently of aircraft power or ground carts, making it ideal for ramp-side or remote use. It supports live data viewing in multiple formats—Binary, Octal, Decimal, Hex, and Engineering Units—and stores data on internal memory, USB drives, or SD cards.
What enhancements are available in the latest version?
The V3 model features a 4.3” touchscreen, 32GB of internal memory, and increased data bus speeds. It also supports 25-hour CVR downloads. A trade-in program is available for operators upgrading from V2 to V3 units.
Is the HHMPI available for rental or consignment?
Yes. For operators with short-term needs or those evaluating integration into their workflow, HHMPI units may be available through daily, weekly, or monthly rentals. Turnaround time for rentals is typically 1–3 business days. Consignment HHMPIs are available to Readout Services customers with annual contracts exceeding 25 readouts. These options are ideal for AOG scenarios, temporary fleet support, or bridging procurement cycles. Contact your Flight Data Systems representative for availability and terms.
