Some 27 STCs have been developed, with another five nearing completion for Gogo's 5G network.

Gogo has confirmed that its 5G air-to-ground (ATG) connectivity network is ready to go for North American customers. Confirmation comes after completing more than 30 hours of flight tests across nearly 20 routes to prove that its 5G tower network will deliver high-speed, low-latency connectivity to operators flying in North America.

During testing, the network provided broadband speeds of more than 80 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload, allowing streaming and internet browsing simultaneously. Gogo has onboarded its first paying customer, and a further 450 pre-provisioned aircraft are set to begin service next month.
