Gogo showcases high-performance Galileo connectivity for aircraft from light to large-cabin and industry-leading privacy protection at AERO Friedrichshafen 2026

Gogo is making its AERO Friedrichshafen debut, marking a significant milestone in its reinforced presence in the international market. Gogo will highlight its growing Gogo Galileo portfolio, which now brings high-speed, reliable and low-latency inflight connectivity to a broader range of aircraft – including light jets and turboprops – that previously had limited or no viable high performance connectivity options. It is also underlining its commitment to customer privacy and cybersecurity, and as industry leaders in the field, are committed to supporting new standards required by EASA Part-IS regulations.

Dave Falberg, Gogo’s SVP Sales EMEA-APAC commented: “For the first time, operators of light aircraft such as Cessna Citations, Pilatus PC-12s and 24s and Embraer Phenom 300shave access to a truly global, high-speed connectivity solution purpose-built for business aviation that meets their performance, size, and budget requirements. Our Galileo portfolio opens the door for more aircraft owners to stay connected wherever they fly, without compromise. With the introduction of EASA Part-IS, which formally embeds cybersecurity into EASA airworthiness requirements, operators must meet new standards for information security and we at Gogo are ahead of the regulations. Gogo already supports customers with advanced cybersecurity solutions, resources, and training designed to help them navigate compliance while protecting sensitive data and onboard systems. We are also proud to minimize data retention and protect what’s sensitive offering customers the same trustworthy connectivity in the sky as in an office or at home.”

The Gogo Galileo system includes the HDX and FDX electronically steered antennas powered by the Eutelsat OneWeb enterprise-grade low earth orbit (LEO) network. The HDX antenna offers a compact, lightweight, and low-power solution capable of delivering reliable speeds of up to 60 Mbps and is easily installed on aircraft from light to large-cabin. For executive airliners and customers requiring maximum throughput, Gogo offers the FDX terminal, a bigger full-duplex antenna capable of delivering consistent speeds of up to 195 Mbps. This system targets large-cabin and ultra-long-range business jets whose many passengers expect uninterrupted streaming, video conferencing, and high-bandwidth corporate applications. Both are in stock and ready to ship immediately.

In total, there are currently 36 STCs for either the HDX or FDX terminal on 35 aircraft types, with some 20 more STCs expected in the first half of 2026. The Galileo system is part of Gogo’s multi-orbit connectivity portfolio, as the company also offers its Plane Simple GEO and air-to-ground solutions.

Gogo is also reinforcing its commitment to cybersecurity and customer privacy at a time when regulatory requirements are evolving including in Europe which is seeing a major shift.

Beyond connectivity and cybersecurity, Gogo customers benefit from 24/7/365 support delivered by expert teams around the world, backed by extensive training programs for operators, dealers, and partners. This ensures that every installation and operation is supported with the highest level of expertise and responsiveness. Visit Gogo at AERO Friedrichshafen 2026 at DOME-26.
