The FAA has issued a Supplemental Type Certification (STC) to Gogo for the installation of its Ku-band satellite equipment on the Airbus A330, the company said.

Gogo obtained the STC for installation of its service across Delta’s commercial aircraft fleet. This is Gogo’s second STC for Delta aircraft, as it previously obtained certification for Boeing 747-400s.

"This is another major milestone for Gogo and clears another hurdle in the process of outfitting Delta’s international fleet with Wi-Fi," said Michael Small, president and CEO of Gogo.

Delta’s entire international fleet is scheduled to receive installations by the end of 2015.
