Gogo Business Aviation is a provider of in-flight broadband Internet service and other connectivity services for business aircraft.

Dassault Aviation has received the first supplemental type certificate (STC) for installation of the Gogo Galileo half-duplex (HDX) satcom system on a Falcon jet. The STC for the Falcon 2000 series enables occupants to access Eutelsat’s OneWeb low-earth-orbit satellite network, and it covers the Falcon 2000EX, 2000EX EASy, DX, LX, LXS, and S models.
Falcon 2000 owners can have the Gogo Galileo HDX system installed at Dassault factory-owned and authorized service centers. The OneWeb LEO satellite network delivers high-speed airborne connectivity globally, during all phases of flight, and on the ground.
Two line-replaceable units are included in the STC package: the HDX electronically steered antenna mounted on top of the fuselage and Gogo’s Avance system. The next Falcon jet to be STC’d for Gogo Galileo HDX will be the 7X by the end of the year.
“A popular choice in the super-midsize market, the Falcon 2000 is exactly the type of aircraft we developed Gogo Galileo HDX to serve. We are proud to have worked alongside Dassault Falcon on the STC and excited to see Gogo Galileo support owners and operators in this segment,” said Gogo CEO Chris Moore. “Installation of the Gogo Galileo HDX terminal helps retain asset value, enhances the passenger in-flight experience, and supports more efficient flight operations.”
