Abstract This article is devoted to the issue of ensuring the safety of small aircraft flights in the airspace of the Central Asian countries. In this regard an analysis of known technical solutions has been carried out. The results of the analysis are presented in the article used as the basis for an automated system of the small aircraft flight path monitoring using global navigation satellite systems and low-Earth orbit satellite communication systems developing. This automated system aims to increase the efficiency of an organization of search and rescue efforts. One of the elements of the automated system is an onboard terminal, which is a remote technical mean installed on the aircraft. To this end during operation, the onboard terminal is vulnerable to environmental factors. So, this article discusses the developed methodology and results of conducted experiments on checking the execution of the functions and resistance to external climatic and mechanical influences.
