Aircell System STC Sought For 5 Different Business
Aircraft
Constant Aviation at Cleveland
Hopkins International Airport said Monday that they have begun the
STC process to allow them to install the Aircell High Speed
Internet System on five aircraft types. The completion of these
STC’s will provide Embraer Legacy, Gulfstream IV, Citation X,
Beechjet, and Piaggio Avanti aircraft with the highly desired
Internet System.
“The capabilities of the Aircell system have been
something that our customers have been asking for to allow for
greater communication. We have continued to see growing desire from
aircraft owners to be able to access a full-scale Internet
connection during their flights.” said Stephen Maiden,
President Constant Aviation.
Together the Aircell Axxess cabin communications system and ATG
4000 High Speed Internet unit provide worldwide Iridium voice
telephone service and broadband data in the continental United
States. Aircell High Speed Internet is an affordable solution in
business aviation that provides a true high speed Internet
experience that equals what passengers are accustomed to on the
ground. It is comparable to a standard broad band, yet it is small
and light enough to fit on virtually any business aircraft. The ATG
4000 High Speed Internet unit for business aviation weighs just 11
pounds and its two belly-mounted antennae weigh just 1.25 pounds
each. This new system is in high demand from business aviation
operators and aircraft owners.
“After completing the first Aircell Axxess installation
with High-speed Internet on the Embraer Legacy 600 earlier this
month, we demonstrated our commitment to providing our customers
with access to cutting edge technology and are now ready to launch
to a broader customer base.” Maiden said.
