Subject: [Starlink] Starlink on a private plane
Date: Thu, 29 May 2025 23:29:15 +1200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <fada615b-c201-4704-a707-30542e88e78a@auckland.ac.nz> (raw)

A nice video by an Australian aviation YouTuber using a mini on Cirrus 
single engine plane:

Also interesting - although not overly scientific - is that they do seem 
to cotton on to the fact that download rates depend on how many other 
users are around.

I also wouldn't take it for gospel that you don't need any special 
permits to install the unit - Australia's traditionally pretty laid back 
when it comes to what you put into your aircraft.
