Gogo announces first Gogo Galileo FDX STC as ALOFT AeroArchitects receives approval covering Boeing Business Jet BBJ737-series aircraft.

The first Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for the Gogo Galileo FDX terminal has been issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

Broomfield, CO., Oct. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO) is pleased to confirm that the first Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for the Gogo Galileo FDX terminal has been issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Generated by ALOFT AeroArchitects, the inaugural certificate covers Boeing 737NG-based BBJ (Boeing Business Jets) 1 and BBJ2, and BBJ MAX models, and can be modified to support subsequent Boeing BBJ 737 STC variants. Gogo worked closely alongside the ALOFT engineering team to develop the STC. An initial Gogo Galileo FDX installation has already been completed on an undisclosed customer’s Boeing BBJ 737-700IGW that was previously without connectivity.

Complementing the advanced technology terminal, Gogo’s FlightDeck Freedom (FDF), datalink service has also been activated to support crew operations.  FDF supports trip planning, flight tracking, automated real-time weather information, geo-notifications, security events, and other critical flight path data for improved situational awareness, enhancing operational efficiencies.

“We are extremely pleased to confirm this approval. This first FDX STC marks another major milestone as we strive to deliver multi-orbit, multi-band connectivity for all types of aircraft.  We’re even more proud that the customer has trusted Gogo to be its first connectivity provider and flight deck datalink service,” says Chris Moore, CEO, Gogo. “It clearly demonstrates that Gogo is still the only company that can fulfill every aspect of an aircraft’s operational nose-to-tail connectivity needs from a single resource.”

Leveraging the full potential of the Eutelsat OneWeb low-earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation, the FDX terminal supports global, high-speed broadband with up to 195Mbps download and 32Mbps upload speeds throughout the cabin. The Gogo Galileo FDX terminal is purpose-built for business aviation and optimised for super-midsize, long-range and executive airliner aircraft types. The terminal allows multiple passengers using multiple devices to simultaneously enjoy an at-home digital experience at altitude for improved productivity, enhanced entertainment, and increased data speeds.
