High-Speed, Low-Latency Internet Provides Seamless Inflight Connectivity

Yingling Aviation announced the successful completion of its first installation of Starlink on a Bombardier Global to notch a significant milestone in inflight connectivity. The integration provides high-speed, low-latency internet access to enable a seamless inflight connectivity experience for the business aviation market.

The operator of the aircraft sought to address the demand for reliable global connectivity and selected Starlink for its unlimited data, cost-effective pricing, and ease of use.

Mike Carney, Director of Aviation for the operator said, “My Principal needs to be connected 24/7 with his business. Cost was a huge driver, and we decided to go with this new player in connectivity, Starlink. The unlimited WiFi with no contract and month-to-month flexibility was a major factor. The app is very user-friendly and allows you to track usage.

“Our test flight was flawless - speeds were exceptionally fast, even with 10 users streaming simultaneously. During testing, crew members used WiFi for live weather satellite streaming while others were on their phones, yet we still saw speeds up to 290 Mbps in flight and over 800 Mbps on the ground, with no delays or latency issues."

Josh Peterson, Regional Sales Manager / Avionics Technical Sales Manager at Yingling Aviation said, “We’re excited to offer Starlink as a connectivity solution for our customers. This installation underscores our commitment to providing cutting-edge technology and top-tier service. With Starlink, operators can now enjoy high-speed internet without the limitations of traditional satellite systems.”
