Bombardier's Challenger 604 has become the latest airframe with a supplemental type certificate available for the in-flight broadband solution that comprises Rockwell Collins' eXchange avionics package and partner Arinc Direct's Ku-band service SkyLink.

The eXchange/SkyLink installation, performed for a Challenger 604 customer, was completed at the Arinc Direct aircraft maintenance and integration facility in Colorado Springs using an STC developed under Arinc's organisation designation authorisation.

Arinc Direct plans to make the Challenger STC available to qualified aircraft maintenance and integration facilities, along with the recently developed STC for the Cessna Citation X and the upcoming STC for the Boeing BBJ.
