Briefing

What Hype is tracking

  • Gulfstream reaching 100 Starlink installs — the 100th aboard a G650ER at Fort Worth Alliance — demonstrates rapid adoption in business aviation; installations deliver onboard speeds reported up to 250 Mbps and were achieved in under a year after FAA clearance.

  • The milestone reflects growing OEM and aftermarket momentum for Starlink outfitting; see Embraer securing an STC to retrofit Starlink on its business jets and other retrofit activity that expands the addressable market (Embraer's STC for Starlink).

  • Continued Starlink capacity expansion from SpaceX launches underpins these inflight rollouts and wider commercial deployments (SpaceX schedules sunrise Falcon 9 launch to advance Starlink V2 Mini buildout).
