Aloft AeroArchitects is developing a supplemental type certificate (STC) for installation of a Eutelsat OneWeb satcom system in the Boeing 737 series. This STC will enable owners of Boeing Business Jets to install the OneWeb system in their airplanes, and Aloft's first installation will be in a BBJ.

The OneWeb satcom includes an electronically steered antenna developed by Stellar Blu Technologies and delivered by Satcom Direct, which is Eutelsat OneWeb’s distribution partner. Total system weight is 98 kilograms (216 pounds), and the antenna measures 213 centimeters (84 inches) by 105 centimeters, with a height of 9.25 centimeters.
