Textron Aviation announced an additional high-speed internet connectivity solution for the Cessna Citation Latitude following the Federal Aviation Administration’s  issuance of AeroMech’s Supplemental Type Certificate for Starlink high-speed internet connectivity. AeroMech’s STC utilizes Starlink’s constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites to provide more reliable connectivity over land, water and remote areas, where traditional in-flight Wi-Fi may not have service.

Brian Rohloff, senior vice president, Customer Support commented: “With Starlink connectivity now available as an upgrade, Citation Latitude customers can enjoy a seamless, high-speed in-flight experience that keeps them connected in more of the places they fly. This enhancement reflects our commitment to innovation and elevates the Latitude’s reputation as the world’s most-delivered midsize business jet, renowned for its exceptional performance and cabin comfort.”

Customers can schedule the upgrade for installation at North American Textron Aviation Service Centers and International Service Centers. AeroMech’s STC utilizes a Starlink Aviation Kit, consisting of an Aero Terminal , Power Supply Unit, a Wireless Access Points, harnessing and only requires power input from the aircraft.
