Skyservice gears up to offer Galileo for G280
Skyservice's STC for Gogo Galileo HDX will cover the Gulfstream G280, a popular super-midsize business jet, with approximately 240 aircraft currently in operation worldwide. It will ensure superior in-flight connectivity.

North America's Skyservice Business Aviation is developing an STC to implement Gogo Galileo HDX on Gulfstream G280 aircraft, ensuring operators have access to the latest high-speed in-flight internet solutions.

“At Skyservice, we are committed to staying ahead of the curve when it comes to supporting the latest advancements in business aviation,” says Benjamin Murray, president and chief executive officer of Skyservice. “The demand for reliable, high-speed in-flight connectivity is higher than ever, and our development of this STC for Gogo Galileo HDX is a direct response to meeting that demand with cutting-edge solutions.”

Gogo Galileo, the latest innovation from Gogo Business Aviation, will provide operators worldwide with global, high-speed in-flight internet and low-latency performance for every size of business aircraft from light jets and turboprops to the largest business jets. With its compact size, the HDX will leverage Eutelsat OneWeb's enterprise-grade Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) satellite network, designed for mobility to deliver low variability and consistent performance across all routes globally.

Skyservice's STC for Gogo Galileo HDX will cover the Gulfstream G280, a popular super-midsize business jet, with approximately 240 aircraft currently in operation worldwide. This STC is expected to be validated by TCCA, the FAA, EASA, ANAC and the UK CAA, which will allow operators globally to benefit from the latest high-speed in-flight connectivity.

Operators can contact Skyservice to submit a purchase order for the Galileo HDX, which is designed to be an easy upgrade to any Avance system (Avance L3, L5, LX5, SCS). Installations are planned for Q1 in 2025. A special promotional rebate of $25,000 is also available for a limited time to current Gogo customers operating a legacy air-to-ground system (ATG 1000, 2000, 4000, 5000) when installing Avance SCS and HDX.
