Owners and operators of Cessna Caravans can now have SpaceX Starlink satcom systems installed on their aircraft, under a supplemental type certificate (STC) recently issued to AeroMech. The Starlink system can be installed by Textron Aviation service centers in North America and select international service centers. Installation takes seven to 10 working days, according to Textron Aviation.

Retailing for $150,000, the Starlink kit includes the aero terminal electronically-steered antenna, which is mounted on top of the fuselage; power supply; two wireless access points; and harnessing.
