Skyservice™ Enhances Aircraft Connectivity for Gulfstream G280 Aircraft
Skyservice Business Aviation, a prominent aviation service provider in North America, has recently received a pivotal Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) approval for the installation of the Gogo Galileo HDX system on Gulfstream G280 aircraft. This certification, authorized by Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), is currently under validation by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the National Civil Aviation Agency of Brazil (ANAC), and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).
Benjamin Murray, President and CEO of Skyservice, emphasized that this certification is part of their ongoing commitment to enhance in-flight connectivity solutions for business aviation. With a thorough portfolio of STCs complemented by their experienced team of aircraft maintenance engineers (AMEs), Skyservice provides its clients with diverse options, accessibility, and expert consultations to secure the fastest and most reliable connectivity available in the industry today.
Skyservice holds an extensive assortment of certifications from authorities including the TCCA, FAA, EASA, ANAC, and the UK’s Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) for various Wi-Fi, satellite, and in-flight communication systems. This new STC approval makes it easier for operators of Gulfstream G280 aircraft to upgrade their connectivity systems. Furthermore, those currently using Gogo ATG solutions will find transitioning to the high-speed, low-latency broadband offered by the Gogo Galileo HDX system seamless, especially with the approaching deadline at the end of 2025 for system upgrades.
Chris Moore, CEO of Gogo, praised Skyservice, stating that the firm consistently exhibits the technical expertise desired in a partner. He highlighted Skyservice's strategic approach to certification, along with their deep understanding of client needs, as the key elements that establish them as a preferred collaborator for deploying Galileo HDX solutions.
