Elliott Aviation, provider of aviation solutions, has successfully completed its latest Starlink installation—this time on a Citation XLS+ at its Moline, IL, facility.

Building on its previous installation at its Atlanta (PDK) location, this marks the company’s first integration of Starlink on a Citation XLS+, further expanding its in-flight connectivity offerings across its network.

With a highly skilled avionics team and a commitment to delivering top-tier connectivity, Elliott Aviation continues to broaden its capabilities, ensuring seamless, high-speed internet access for business and leisure travellers alike.

Starlink’s low-latency, high-bandwidth service provides download speeds of 40-220 Mbps, upload speeds between 8-25 Mbps, and latency as low as 20-60 milliseconds—ideal for video calls, streaming, and mission-critical business applications.

Subscription plans start at $2,000 per month, delivering an unparalleled connectivity experience at altitude.

Bill Forbes, senior vice president of avionics at Elliott Aviation said: “Our team is always looking for ways to enhance the flying experience, and this installation is a prime example of that commitment.

“With Starlink, operators and passengers alike benefit from a fast, reliable internet connection wherever they fly.”

Elliott Aviation now offers Starlink installations across multiple locations, including Moline, Des Moines, Minneapolis, and Atlanta, supporting a variety of aircraft such as the King Air 350, Citation Excel, XLS, XLS+, and Challenger 300, 350, and 604.

Forbes added: “With a highly trained team skilled in the latest avionics technology, this milestone paves the way for more Starlink installations across a wider range of aircraft.

“As connectivity expectations continue to rise, we’re committed to providing solutions that keep operators and passengers seamlessly connected.”
