Satcom Direct’s Plane Simple Ku-band tail-mounted Antenna System has received Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) supplemental type certification (STC) approvals for Falcon 7X aircraft.
The latest STC gives all Dassault Falcon 7X operators access access to the cutting-edge SD Plane Simple advanced antenna technology.
“We are proud that Dassault recognizes the advantages delivered by the Plane Simple system and how it can enhance connectivity on the Falcon airframes. The STC makes the full Satcom Direct ecosystem of hardware, software, ground infrastructure, cybersecurity, and award-winning customer support immediately available to this set of Falcon owners,” said SD Founder and CEO Jim Jensen. “We are raising the connectivity bar with this whole new class of antenna hardware that has been purpose-built for the business aviation sector. More importantly, it gives customers greater flexibility, cost-effective connectivity options, and a single resource to fulfill every connectivity need.”
“Falcon aircraft are known for being technologically advanced, and the SD Plane Simple antenna system is the perfect complement to our aircraft. The system has already demonstrated its capabilities by performing flawlessly on our Dassault Falcon 2000LX/LXS/S aircraft, and we’re pleased to add the new STC to our customer offering. We’re confident our operators are going to be delighted with the reliability, performance, and the added value of SD customer service,” said Geoff Chick, Sr. Vice President of Dassault’s worldwide service network. The SD Plane Simple Ku-band antenna is available for installation through the Dassault factory MRO and Dassault Aircraft Services network.
