In addition to our work toward the STC grant and installation commencement of Agile SKy for the Pilatus PC-12, we are also working away on an innovative system design that we will be trialling on the Pilatus PC-24.
Engineering Development work to develop custom parts to enable this solution is underway at present. We expect to be undertaking initial testing of our intended solution in Q3 2026.
If the solution looks promising, then we'll commence work on a PC-24 Agile Sky STC.
One key data point regarding the PC-24 is that the plans suited to PC-12 operations are not applicable for the PC-24, due to those plans having a 391 kt ground speed limitation.
The only currently available Starlink plans that support ground speeds above 391 Kts are the Starlink Business Aviation plans.
The current pricing for these plans is either US$2000/mth for 20Gb plus $100/Gb thereafter, or US$10,000/Mth unlimited.
Accordingly, a decision to deploy Starlink on a PC-24 (however achieved) needs to be based on a willingness to pay for service at one of those plan / price points.
