Skyservice Business Aviation expands its avionics offering with a new Supplemental Type Certificate for the Gogo Galileo HDX system on Bombardier Challenger CL604, CL605 and CL650 aircraft. With Transport Canada certification approval, Skyservice becomes the only Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul in North America to have completed the STC for Gogo's next generation global broadband connectivity solution on Challenger aircraft models. 

Benjamin Murray, President and Chief Executive Officer of Skyservice commented: "Connectivity is no longer a luxury, it's a necessity for today's business aviation clients. We're proud to offer Challenger owners and operators high-performance, future-ready solutions, keeping them connected anywhere in the world." 

Skyservice continues to lead the industry forward in aircraft connectivity and avionics modernization. Since [month], the Company has successfully completed two Gogo Galileo HDX system installations on a Challenger 605 aircraft, marking a pivotal moment for Canadian business aviation. Certification validation is underway with the Federal Aviation Administration, European Union Aviation Safety Agency and National Civil Aviation Agency – Brazil, targeting 570 Challenger 604, 605 and 650 aircraft and further reinforcing the global scope of the project.

Challenger 604, 605 and 650 aircraft already equipped with a Gogo AVANCE system can convert to the Gogo Galileo seamlessly, requiring as little as seven business days for installation.
