Proclaiming that in-flight connectivity "is at the tipping point in the business jet market," OnAir and TriaGnoSys have formally teamed to offer a one-stop-shop for lightweight airborne mobile connectivity.
"The combination of OnAir's global mobile phone service and TriaGnoSys' airborne hardware is unique. We have the widest geographic reach of any in-flight mobile phone service provider and the equipment is sufficiently flexible to be fitted to any plane and to meet all customer requirements. That means it is suitable for all types of aircraft," said OnAir CEO Ian Dawkins.
The solution, which operates via Inmarsat's SwiftBroadband aeronautical service, has already undergone rigorous testing in the lab and over satellite.
It will be fitted on Dasnair's Falcon 7X aircraft. In May, OnAir said Dasnair would become the world's first Falcon 7X operator to provide "the most complete connectivity suite of services installed on a large cabin long range business jet."
