EAD Aerospace has just received final EASA STC for the Inmarsat GX fuselage-mounted satcom antenna installation on the entire family of Airbus A320 aircraft (A319 CEO, A320 CEO and NEO, A321 CEO and NEO), with the exception of the A318.
The STC is for the latest generation of the EAD Aerospace Satcom Universal Mounting System (SUMS), designed and manufactured in France and which supports the Honeywell fuselage-mounted GX antenna and radome.
SUMS has been installed and certified on the A319, A330, A340, B777-200, B777-300 and is now fully installable on A320, A321 CEO and NEO aircraft. The A319 NEO model will also be covered once the EASA Type Certificate Data Sheets (TCDS) of the aircraft are known.
This modification approved the instruction for a temporary removal of a SATCOM antenna (HGA AMT-3800 from EMS SATCOM) on A320.
STC obtained after replacement of the existing Satcom Antenna System CMA-2102 (CMC) by HGA-7001 (Cobham)
EAD Aerospace is holder of several SITAONAIR GSM/WLAN activation STC among which this STC 10051755 which certifies the activation of GSM and WIFI Services on aircraft A319 & A320 fitted with SATCOM & GSMConnex System
