SmartSky Networks anticipates that at least seven more aircraft models will be approved for installation of its air-to-ground inflight connectivity equipment under supplemental type certificates (STC) slated for completion this quarter. Once an STC is granted, customers of those models can request installation through the SmartSky dealer network, which includes about 20 MROs and OEMs.

SmartSky has secured dozens of STCs already, it said. A Dassault Falcon 2000 had a SmartSky Flagship system installed and was returned to service this month. This installation complements the STC obtained for the Falcon 900 earlier this year. In addition, installation of the SmartSky Lite system, designed for smaller aircraft, is nearing completion on a Bombardier Learjet 60.
