A system and method for facilitating the efficient operation of a mobile station as it transfers from communicating via one wireless data network to another. The engine assembly includes a core gas turbine engine, a core cowl which circumscribes the core gas turbine engine, a nacelle positioned radially outward from the core cowl, and a fan nozzle duct defined between the core cowl and the nacelle. Each of a number of packet data flows between the mobile device and the packet data network are facilitated by way of the one of the radio access networks and one of the access nodes.
