ICOM Bluetooth Headset VS-3

The ICOM VS-3 Bluetooth® Headsets are designed to offer hands-free control and communication for ICOM’s A16E/A25/A120 Transceiver.

Operating communication devices, especially while in the air or on the ground, become significantly safer and more convenient using a headset. In addition to transmitting/receiving audio, the VS-3 headsets feature three customizable function buttons along with a Push-To-Talk (PTT) switch.

Please note that to utilize the VS-3 headset, an additional UT-133 Bluetooth® adapter must be installed into the radio, which is not included with the purchase of A16E, A25, or A120 devices. Thus, both the VS-3 headset and UT-133 adapter must be obtained separately.

An Aeronautical Radio Operator Certificate (AROC) is required by anyone who needs to communicate on an aviation air-band radio frequency and is not already licensed or qualified.

This includes:

• aircraft maintenance engineers
• maintenance organisations
• remote pilot license (RePL) holders.

Other people who need an AROC may also include airport or emergency personnel.

The Part 61 Manual of Standards (MOS) and CASR Part 64 are documents that support flight crew licensing regulations including Aeronautical Radio Operator Certificates (AROC).
