TAM Executive Aviation has become the first company in Brazil to install Gogo Business Aviation’s Galileo HDX connectivity system on an Embraer Phenom 300, under a domestically developed and approved certification.
The installation was completed under a Certificado de Tipo Suplementar (CST), Brazil’s equivalent of an FAA supplemental type certificate, issued by the Agência Nacional de Aviação Civil (ANAC). TAM developed the CST in-house, and other operators seeking the installation on Phenom 300s may now acquire the certification from TAM. The company holds existing certifications for Galileo HDX installations on Cessna Citation Sovereigns and Latitudes.
The Galileo HDX uses an electronically scanned array antenna connected to a low-earth-orbit (LEO) satellite network, offering speeds of up to 60 Mbps. TAM noted that the system is suitable for light to large-cabin jets.
Wellington Amorim, director of the TAM Executive Aviation service center, said the project demonstrated the integrated capacity of the facility. He added that customers gain access to locally approved technology supported by a team, with installations carried out by teams that have mastered each step of the process. TAM Executive Aviation “brings together engineering, certification, and installation in a single ecosystem,” he said.
TAM Executive Aviation operates service centers in Belo Horizonte, Goiânia, and Jundiaí, the last of which the company describes as the largest executive aviation service center in Latin America.
