Deal all,

The sad thing was that I was completely unprepared! I just sit on my seat,
and after the normal safety instructions I suddenly see familiar logo on
the screen and announcement. I first thought it must be some premium
service or rather just announcement on something they plan to do in the
future. Once it sink in and I connected on my phone and ran some speed
tests to see what was available, I realized that I gotta seize the
opportunity and grab my laptop to try figure out some tests.

David: "Showing a real-world demonstration of how well it worked is a
really cool thing to do."
- Good to hear! I was quite surprised how well it worked! Obviously its
quite ideal in terms of visibility, but everything else, the handovers,
speed of moving compared to the 16 km/h recommended for the roaming dishy
and another 150 users on the same network! Was very cool experience.

Oleg: "Have you tried to run StarDebug or at least official Starlink app on
your phone? I wonder is it possible to access the hardware and get some
debug data :)"
- No, did not think of doing this! Next time I will be prepared! I think we
will just send one of the guys for a cup of coffee in Vienna to collect
data since the interest is there!

JPan: "need more data though" + "do you happen to have any info about your
public ip address while on the plane, so we can figure out its pop and pop
handover behaviors along the way?"
- I only ran some ping sweeps, as I was really focused on the target server
that I ran the remote control tests through, for user-experience and what
it looks like at application layer. Will add this to my script so I always
get it. With 1000 samples, ping sweep 1, min/avg/max =
36.705/50.375/112.491 ms. Sweep 2, min/avg/max = 35.804/51.484/123.599 ms.
Sweep 3, min/avg/max = 35.844/49.873/111.873 ms. Across all samples
P99=73.86389, P50=48.9325, P1=37.88168. Quite impressive!

Spencer: "very interested in that exact detail if you happened to collect
it."
- Will make sure to have it next time!

Nitinder: "If you are embarking on future adventures with Starlink, please
install this in your browser and trigger a few tests"
- Noted! Will certainly do this next time!

*****
Question: Anything else of interest if we send one of our engineers to
collect more data? Please let me know and I will try to organize it!

Best regards,
Sauli
