Constant Aviation announced it has secured an STC for Wi-Fi on the Global Express. The installation can be completed at any of the company's three U.S. locations–Cleveland, Ohio; Birmingham, Ala.; and Las Vegas.
"With close to 100 registered Global Express aircraft in the country, we sought to expand our product offerings and amenities for the Global Express market. Constant Aviation understands the demand for more reliable in-flight services with faster connectivity,” said Derek Morris, avionics design and engineering manager.
“This STC project was unique because it was the first time multiple Wi-Fi onboard access points have been certified at once. The in-flight networks are seamlessly handed off between 3G, satellite-based Internet and ground-based Internet, delivering a combination of maximum connectivity and reliability," he said. The cabin management system personalizes content storage of audio files and movies and it also allows for wireless control of the cabin environment, audio and lighting, he added.
