At the Middle East and North Africa Business Aviation Association (MEBAA) show in Dubai this week, Honeywell announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Sino Jet, marking a step forward in their collaboration on advanced aviation services and technology development. This partnership aims to support Honeywell’s strategic focus on aviation megatrends, including future technologies and enhanced connectivity.
The MoU outlines plans to deepen cooperation in next-generation connectivity technologies, such as Honeywell’s JetWave X Satcom system. JetWave X represents an advancement in satellite communication for business aviation, offering enhanced data speeds and global coverage. Leveraging Viasat’s Ka-band network, including the ViaSat-3 and Global Xpress satellites, JetWave X supports data speeds exceeding 30 Mbps, with potential speeds reaching up to 100 Mbps in high-traffic flight corridors.
For Sino Jet, the collaboration builds on existing support from Honeywell, which has provided navigation databases, datalink subscription services, and aftermarket parts for its fleet. According to Sino Jet’s international president, Chris Wu, “The advanced connectivity technologies and solutions provided by Honeywell have greatly benefited our clients.”
Honeywell’s v-p and general manager of services and connectivity, Jason Wissink, highlighted the critical role of satellite communications in ensuring safety and operational efficiency. “Honeywell’s satellite communications systems provide operators, passengers, and crew with reliable, consistent connectivity throughout the world. We are honored to further deepen our collaboration with Sino Jet.”
