Loose ELT antenna impacts 2Ku deployments

19 July 2018 By Seth Miller 3 Comments

KLM's PH-AKA in the hangar at Schiphol on 27 June 2018 with the Gogo 2Ku radome showing.

Earlier this month EASA issued an Airworthiness Directive affecting certain of Gogo’s 2Ku inflight connectivity installations. Air vortices created by the 2Ku radome cause excessive vibration in the ELT antenna, potentially shaking it loose or causing structural issues in the fuselage. Fortunately the issue was discovered relatively quickly, the number of aircraft affected is low and a revised installation process is expected to be in place in the near future.
