STS Mod Center, a division of STS Aviation Group, kicks off a major aircraft connectivity project in Melbourne, Florida, that will call upon the team to install Thales Wi-Fi systems on more than 100 commercial aircraft over the next 12 months.
“The first aircraft to be a part of this program, an A321, arrived a few days ago and installation work is already underway.” said Mark Smith, President of STS Aviation Group. “In the coming months, the STS Mod Center team in Melbourne will install Thales Wi-Fi systems on more than 100 aircraft; aircraft that includes models from both Boeing and Airbus.”
It takes the STS Mod Center team about three days to complete the nose-to-tail installation of a Thales Wi-Fi system on narrow-body aircraft and about four-to-six days when working on widebody aircraft.
