Jeffrey,
I may have just missed the SATCOM Direct convention in Las Vegas, ends tomorrow, all the venders are
present,. its March 1st-3rd,. I was just told about this,.
I met with Gulfstream Avionics sales today reference Internet options,.
The fastest is GoGo. AirCell system which is continental US coverage only,. since it uses ground based
reception, it is fastest service,.
-BBML by Rockwell Collins (Broad Band Multi Link, is the most popular that Gulfstream is offering on G550's
etc, coverage is through Satellite,.and is world wide for the most part,. this is not an option for GIl since STC is
required and not cost effective, Gulfstream has STC for GIV's and up.. plus, this system is expensive: depending
on SATPHONE installed and antenna, the best case scenario is $260,000 to as much as 5700,000 (of course
these are Gulfsteam prices!!)
I will keep researching this
thx
Larry
