Per today’s press release from flyExclusive, flyExclusive completed the Starlink installation on its Challenger aircraft in record time, and is now targeting a five-to-seven day cadence as additional aircraft move through the pipeline.

“Our team has extensive experience integrating advanced avionics and connectivity systems,” said Jim Segrave, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of flyExclusive. “Applying that expertise to Starlink allows us to execute quickly while expanding the commercial scope of our MRO business.”

Starlink Aero Terminals are designed to be installed in just a few hours, and significantly reduce the time aircraft are ordinarily out of service for traditional installations, according to flyExclusive.

flyExclusive’s multi-aircraft customer Starlink installation agreement is separate from the Company’s endeavors to deploy Starlink across its own fleet.

“Management views third-party Starlink installations as a meaningful step in growing maintenance and avionics into a standalone revenue vertical, further diversifying the company’s income streams beyond charter and fractional operations,” reads today’s press release.
