Gogo Galileo high performance connectivity system can now be installed on the Dassault Falcon 7X and 8X. Dassault Falcon Jet MRO has received Supplemental Type Certificates from both the Federal Aviation Administration and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency for the Gogo Galileo HDX antenna.Gogo Galileo system, powered by the Eutelsat OneWeb enterprise-grade LEO network, offers passengers and crew high-performance and reliable connectivity wherever they fly in the world. The HDX electronically steered antenna provides a compact, lightweight, low power and high-performance solution with reliable speeds of up to 60 Mbps, optimized for light- to large-cabin aircraft.

Frederic Cadiou, Sales Support Director, Dassault MRO commented: “Connectivity has become a core element of the Falcon customer experience, particularly on long‑range missions flown by the Falcon 7X and 8X. The approval of Gogo Galileo on these aircraft provides our operators with a high‑performance, reliable additional solution that meets rising expectations for global coverage and speed, while aligning well with the Falcon platform’s efficiency and design philosophy.”

Michael Skou Christensen, Chief Commercial Officer, Gogo stated: “These STCs are very exciting, as the Dassault Falcon 7X and its successor, the Falcon 8X, are among the most popular ultra-long-range business jets thanks to their combination of performance, comfort, and advanced technology. Their customers – corporations, charter companies, and high-profile owners – expect reliable, high performance and private connectivity during their flights and that’s what they’ll get with the Gogo Galileo system. Cybersecurity and privacy have become increasingly important discussion topics with customers, especially with new PART-IS regulations in Europe, where many Falcons are based. Our cybersecurity protections and training are very well received. In addition, all of Gogo’s connectivity solutions are designed to protect privacy. We minimize data retention and protect what’s sensitive – something most of our customers now prioritize.” 

In addition to consistent, high-speed inflight internet performance, Gogo equipped aircraft have access to Gogo’s comprehensive suite of value-added services, including advanced cybersecurity protections and training, as well as industry-leading 24/7/365 global customer support in multiple languages.
