Gogo Seeks Permission to Add Intelsat 20 to ESAA Network

Gogo wants FCC permission for up to 200 earth station aboard aircraft (ESAA) terminals communicating with Intelsat 20, which orbits at 68.5 degrees east. In an International Bureau filing Friday, Gogo said its requested special temporary authority will let it respond to Middle East customer demand. The company said it's also preparing an application to modify its ESAA license to add satellites as points of communication.
