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

Omni Aircraft Maintenance is working on FAA supplemental type certificate approval for Gogo Galileo FDX for Challenger 300s, 350s, and 3500s. Tthe Tulsa, Oklahoma-based MRO expects to complete the certification in August and is handling all development, engineering, testing, certification, and installation work at its own facilities.
Gogo Galileo FDX leverages Eutelsat OneWeb’s low-earth-orbit satellite network to deliver global high-speed connectivity enabling videoconferencing, cloud-based applications, and high-bandwidth passenger use.
“This is a major advancement for the Challenger platform,” said Omni executive v-p of sales and business development Tim Lockerby. “The [Challenger] 300, 350, and 3500 are exceptional aircraft that are critical workhorses for corporate and fleet operators. Until now, high-speed global connectivity with aviation-specific hardware has been one of the few remaining limitations. Galileo FDX changes that completely.”
Omni has begun engaging with Challenger operators to support early interest, aligned maintenance events, and installation planning opportunities. “This program represents exactly how we approach innovation at Omni,” Lockerby said. “We don’t wait for capability gaps to be solved—we invest in solving them ourselves when we know it will materially improve the aircraft for operators.”
