Air safety regulators in the U.S. and Canada have given Mecaer Aviation Group (MAG) the green light to install Skytrac’s SDL-350 onboard server and satcom system in Leonardo AW139s. Skytrac and Mecaer announced Wednesday that they have completed FAA and Transport Canada supplemental type certification (STC) for the SDL-350 terminal in the intermediate twin-turbine helicopter after installing and testing it on an example owned by one of MAG’s VIP clients.

“As one of the first integrators of the SDL-350, the Mecaer Aviation Group is glad to have been able to assist in completing this STC with Skytrac,” said Daren Humphries, sales manager for corporate aircraft at MAG. “Helping to certify the SDL-350 will enable our client to have the highest bandwidth connectivity available on the market to access all of the capabilities they require inflight.”
