Explanation

Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary: Sceye Inc is developing and manufacturing a high altitude airship platform for commercial use. To communicate with the remote piloted platform L and S band radio communications are required for command/control and video downlink from the platform.

Purpose of Operation

Please explain the purpose of operation:

Flight testing of two funded airship platforms are planned. Airships will ascend from ground level and operate at a nominal cruise altitude of 60,000 to 65,000 ft. The first flight is scheduled for September to October of 2020, and second flight for May to July 2021, depending on weather windows and flight conditions. The first flight has a nominal operation time of 24 hours and is primarily a technology demonstrator. Radio testing will be carried out of our Roswell, NM and Moriarty, NM facilities. A separate application will be put in for the second ship as it will be more than 6 months separated from the first ship flight.
