GoGetAir takes measured approach to MOSAIC

GoGetAir's G750 will receive several updates for the 2026 model year, including a redesigned interior, a new Garmin avionics suite, and continued development of the company's Turbotech TP-R90-powered turbine variant.

Šalamon said GoGetAir's 2026 models (which can be operated as experimental aircraft while certification is pending) will include an upgraded Garmin Axis avionics suite built around two large displays rather than a central instrument stack.

"You do not need a central stack anymore," Šalamon said. "You can have just two displays and basically you have all the redundancy that you need." Šalamon said dual sensors for the position, speed, and heading provide the redundancy that previously required a backup instrument, and pilots flying instrument approaches would no longer require a separate GTN navigator in the center stack because the new displays integrate that functionality. Šalamon estimated the new avionics package would cost roughly 25 percent less than the previous configuration.

GoGetAir aims to anticipate buyer expectations rather than react to them. "We are trying to be in advance of their wishes," Šalamon said. Most of the company’s buyers are first-time aircraft owners, and it intends to move toward a single standard configuration rather than offering multiple avionics or equipment options, allowing customers to choose only paint color, seat color, and pattern.

On weight and range, GoGetAir said the new model will be 15 kilograms (33 pounds) lighter than the current version, freeing capacity for fuel or payload. It also plans to offer a 100-liter (26.4 gallons) auxiliary fuel tank starting 2027, which combined with standard tankage would give the aircraft 59 gallons of total fuel capacity. Separately, GoGetAir said it is in the midst of flight testing to raise the aircraft's never-exceed speed (V_NE) from 152 knots to 174 knots, which is expected to increase cruise speed by about 15 knots.

Two years ago, Šalamon said GoGetAir had delivered its first turbine-powered version of the G750 to a customer. That aircraft now has about 200 hours, according to Šalamon, and GoGetAir considers the turbine variant ready for serial production. Šalamon said the company expects to introduce the turbine model at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh in Wisconsin next year, hoping for MOSAIC compliance.

The MOSAIC final rule was unveiled a year ago, during AirVenture 2025, and expanded sport pilot privileges in October. The rule also, effective July 24, redefines what qualifies as a light sport aircraft, now called light-sport category aircraft. Those changes to sport pilot privileges took effect October 22, but manufacturers could not begin much of the work toward certification of light-sport category aircraft under the rule until the FAA accepted various ASTM consensus standards outlining the detailed requirements. The FAA published the first set of approved ASTM specifications for light-sport category airplanes on July 16, allowing manufacturers to apply for certification once the required tests are complete. 

Šalamon said GoGetAir does not see major obstacles but wants to review the relevant specifications before making compliance claims, citing past experience with light sport aircraft projects where manufacturers signed compliance declarations that later proved difficult to support. "I don't want to promise too much, because we really need to see if we are compliant," Šalamon said.

GoGetAir predicted that MOSAIC will not immediately transform the market. "If now the market will, from zero, become huge, I have serious doubts," Šalamon said, adding that penetration is likely to be slow as manufacturers and buyers take a cautious approach until the rule's requirements are clear.

This and other interviews with manufacturers suggest a broader industry trend: Companies are rolling out avionics, interior, and performance upgrades, while remaining cautious about promising compliance timelines until the rule's requirements are fully understood. Šalamon said any aircraft ordered now would already reflect the 2026 avionics and interior updates, regardless of when MOSAIC compliance is confirmed.
