Release Details

Broomfield, CO., June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO) has confirmed its Gogo C1 line replaceable unit (LRU) has received Supplemental Type Certification (STC) for 42 aircraft models through an Approved Model List (AML) granted by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The confirmation covers 70% of North American Gogo legacy air-to-ground (ATG) customer aircraft and, once equipped, will ensure continued compatibility with and connectivity to Gogo’s forthcoming LTE network upgrade.

Metrea Aerospace Design (MASD) collaborated with Gogo to generate the AML STC, which covers aircraft including Cessna Citation, Gulfstream, Bombardier Challenger and Learjet, Dassault Falcon, Embraer, and Hawker family models. Equipping the Gogo C1 will enable current customers operating with legacy ATG 1000, 2000, 4000 or 5000 systems to seamlessly transition to the upgraded Gogo Biz North American 850MHz Licensed LTE network when it comes online in May 2026 to ensure uninterrupted service. The Gogo C1 LRU also provides a practical bridging capability for customers planning to switch up to Gogo AVANCE products, which enables optimized inflight productivity through internet, voice, streaming, popular pilot applications, and more.

To maintain continuity, the C1 houses a dual-technology aircard that connects to the existing network and will automatically transition to the new LTE network when it becomes available. To simplify installation, Gogo has designed the C1 with external dimensions and attachment points to match the legacy products, enabling a form-fit replacement. The LRU swap will require minimal downtime, and the Gogo C1 hardware will provide customers with a simple transition pathway, delivering access to a strengthened, future-ready network for more capacity and an improved customer experience.

“ATG continues to represent a valuable connectivity solution for aircraft operating over North America, so we want to make it easy and fast for our customers to maintain their connectivity while seamlessly transitioning to the upgraded LTE network,” says Gogo CEO Chris Moore. “We know that customers need to plan connectivity upgrades, so we’ve invested in creating the Gogo C1 LRU to help clients navigate the practical and financial pathway from legacy ATG services to our AVANCE portfolio. We are already working with our extensive approved dealer network to ensure it’s a streamlined process.”

Customers are eligible for a $35,000 installation incentive if they complete the C1 installation before December 31, 2025. Gogo is also providing other generous promotions to enable a direct transition to Gogo AVANCE, with its higher connection speeds, over-the-air (OTA) system software updates, and access to Gogo Vision inflight entertainment.
