At the NBAA-BACE 2024, Textron Aviation announced its selection of Gogo Business Aviation’s LEO solution, Gogo Galileo HDX, for factory installation on the Cessna Citation Longitude, Latitude and Ascend, making Textron Aviation the first business aviation manufacturer to offer Gogo Galileo HDX as a linefit option on new customer aircraft.

The system is built on Gogo’s proven AVANCE platform and features a fuselage-mounted HDX antenna, designed specifically for business jets. This configuration makes Gogo Galileo more affordable and easier to install and operate than other satellite systems currently available.

“At Textron Aviation, we are committed to enhancing the flight experience for our customers,” said Lannie O’Bannion, senior vice president, Global Sales & Flight Operations for Textron Aviation.

“By offering Gogo Galileo HDX, we ensure that passengers on these Citation business jets enjoy a seamless and superior inflight Wi-Fi experience, no matter where their journey takes them.”
