SpaceX, OneWeb Strike Comments Against One Another, Citing Coordination

OneWeb withdrew two comments filed earlier this year on SpaceX's proposed second-generation satellite system, and SpaceX withdrew a partial petition to deny OneWeb's pending modification of its first-generation system and its second-gen application, the companies told the FCC International Bureau Thursday. They said they withdrew the filings as a result of successfully coordinating their systems. The coordination should "make further conditions on these authorizations unnecessary," they said. They urged FCC OK of the various pending applications.
