Nextant's STCs for Starlink satcom system will soon appear on Gulfstream G450s and G550s.

Nextant Aerospace has received an supplemental type (STC) to install SpaceX’s Starlink satcom system in the Gulfstream G450 and G550 series of business jets. The approval announced on Tuesday follows closely behind the certification of Starlink Connectivity STCs and PMA installation kits for the Gulfstream G650 and Bombardier’s Global Express, Global XRS, and Global 6000.

“For too long, the in-flight connectivity options available to aircraft owners have lagged behind the capabilities they are accustomed to in their offices and homes,” said Tony Kurpely, Nextant Aerospace senior vice president. “We are proud to be the first to develop and install Starlink’s truly reliable high-speed internet solution in a business jet environment. And we will continue to develop and certify Nextant’s Starlink Inflight Connectivity STCs to more and more aircraft types.”
