    That allows for uninterrupted Netflix streams and even the ability to join video conference calls. Starlink says it can offer speeds of up to 220Mbps per plane

    Still on the pretty slow side considering that large planes can have a few hundred passengers. Still technically interesting I’m sure that communicating with a high-speed plane with an even higher-speed satellite comes with it’s challenges.

      Just what we need, people to start joining video calls and talking throughout the flight.
