Program Includes ‘No Charge’ Certification Packages For Operators Installing Aviator 200 Systems
Aircell has signed an agreement with P3 Voith Aerospace GmbH, Hamburg, Germany, to develop several new Supplemental Type Certificates (STCs) for the Aviator 200 in-flight connectivity system in the European market.
Under the program, Aircell will provide complete, no-cost STCs to operators installing an Aviator 200 system at an authorized Aircell Dealer and activating a new SwiftBroadband service plan with Aircell. Plans for the first STC in the program are now being finalized, and the company is seeking aircraft to be used as the certification platform for future STCs.
“Providing no charge certification packages to operators will significantly reduce installation costs and allow more people to enjoy the productivity-enhancing benefits of in-flight connectivity in Europe,” said John Wade, Aircell’s Executive Vice President and General Manager. “By establishing this program in partnership with members of the European business aviation community, Aircell continues to support the proliferation of in-flight connectivity services.”
In a related development, Aircell recently became a Distribution Partner and Service Provider for Inmarsat’s SwiftBroadband service. Aircell recently debuted its new SwiftBroadband monthly service plans, which feature rates that automatically decrease as data usage increases, no locked pricing requirements and no overage fees.
