Canadian aviation services provider Skyservice Business Aviation has been awarded a supplemental type certificate (STC) from Transport Canada for the installation of the Gogo Galileo HDX system on the Gulfstream G280 super-midsize business jet. Validations of the STC from the FAA, EASA, and Brazil’s ANAC are still pending.

The HDX features a 21.6-pound, electronically steered antenna mounted on the top of the aircraft fuselage. Launched last year, the Galileo low-earth-orbit satellite communications system—backed by Eutelsat OneWeb’s network—offers service speeds up to 60 Mbps download and 11 Mbps upload.
