Gulfstream Aerospace has installed its 100th Starlink connectivity system aboard an aircraft, the company said today. The milestone installation was completed at Gulfstream’s Fort Worth Alliance Service Center on a G650ER. This installation came less than a year after the Savannah, Georgia-based aircraft manufacturer received FAA supplemental type certificate approval to add the system to the G650 and G650ER. 

In addition to the G650/G650ER, Gulfstream has achieved FAA nods for Starlink aboard the G800, G700, G600, G500, G550, and GV models so far, with plans to add more. Gulfstream also offers the option of Starlink forward-fit installations on new G800s, G700s, G600s, and G500s.
