The Dassault Falcon 900 series, which has more than 400 aircraft in service, joins a growing list of aircraft types that have already been granted Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for SmartSky’s patented ATG connectivity service. This will make its high-performance network available to more aircraft that need secure, uninterrupted connectivity.
Dave Helfgott, CEO, SmartSky Networks said, “Since SmartSky’s next generation service for business aviation became available nationwide, it has continued to impress, even in the most demanding use cases — from executives having full access to office applications and VPNs to teens using FaceTime and TikTok. Bringing SmartSky to Dassault Falcon airframes is an important addition to our available STCs for business aviation aircraft. In addition, we have multiple new STCs in progress and we are laser focused on expanding availability to meet escalating demand.”
