Duncan Aviation Nears 300 Wi-Fi Installations

Nov. 7, 2012

LINCOLN, NEB.  — Duncan Aviation has installed nearly 300 aircraft broadband internet systems with in-flight Wi-Fi in the last three years, and plans to continue on that installation pace for an additional 150 to 200 additional systems in the next 24 months. With a total of nearly 500 installations in just five years, Duncan Aviation is the clear leader in the aftermarket installation of broadband upgrades such as Aircell Gogo Biz and Swiftbroadband systems.

“Broadband with Wi-Fi is one of our most requested avionics upgrades, and has been for some time,” says Duncan Aviation’s Avionics Representative Justin Vena. “The installation can easily be completed during an interior refurbishment or an airframe inspection and is one of the most valuable productivity tools a business jet can have. We don’t anticipate that the demand will slow anytime soon.”

Duncan Aviation has invested heavily in this market. The company owns 13 STCs for broadband with Wi-Fi applicable to the most popular business jet models operating today. The STCs were completed by the Duncan Aviation Engineering Team under Duncan Aviation’s Organization Designation Authorization (ODA), which includes STC, MRA and PMA authority. Duncan Aviation holds STCs for in-flight Wi-Fi for the following models: Hawker 800A, 800XP, 850XP, 900XP, the Falcon 2000, 2000EX, 2000EX EASy and 900EX, 900EX EASy, the Citation 560 XL, 680, 750, XLS, the Challenger 300, 601-3A/R, 604, 605, Lear 45, Embraer Phenom 300, Legacy 600, 650 and the Gulfstream GIV, GV.
