- Embraer Legacy 450/500 (TCCA STC issued, FAA validation pending)
- Cessna Citation CJ3/3+ (TCCA STC issued, FAA validation pending)
- Bombardier Challenger 300/350 (TCCA STC issued, FAA validation received)
- Bombardier Challenger 604/605 (TCCA STC issued, FAA validation received)

We are thrilled to partner with Gogo in order to expand the availability of fast, cutting-edge, and dependable 5G service options to a broader range of aircraft."
David Salvador, vice president of aftermarket sales for Gogo said, "The Skyservice team is a long-standing and valued partner of Gogo, and a significant collaborator in bringing the future of air-to-ground IFEC to our shared customers. Their continued investment in Gogo 5G certification further expands our 5G STC portfolio and is exciting news for operators of those aircraft desiring a great inflight connectivity experience."
