Textron Aviation announced at NBAA-BACE 2024 its selection of Gogo Business Aviation’s global Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) solution, Gogo Galileo HDX, for factory installation on the Cessna Citation Longitude, Latitude and Ascend.
Textron Aviation said this makes it the first business aviation OEM to offer Gogo Galileo HDX as an option on new customer aircraft.
The Gogo Galileo HDX system is built on Gogo’s Avance platform and features a fuselage-mounted HDX antenna, designed specifically for business jets.
“At Textron Aviation, we are committed to enhancing the flight experience for our customers,” said Lannie O’Bannion, SVP, global sales and 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.”
Gogo Galileo HDX is expected to be available on the Citation Longitude beginning early 2026. Timing on the other aircraft will be announced at a later date.
