                                                    Supplement to add satellite coordination letter for AMC-15

Dear Mr. Blais,

       Please find attached a satellite operator coordination letter from SES Americom, Inc.,
operator of satellite AMC-15, to be included as a supplement to the above-captioned application
of The Boeing Company (“Boeing”) for authority to operate up to 100 Earth Stations Aboard
Aircraft (“ESAA”).1

         As explained in the application, pursuant to Sections 25.227(a)(3)(ii) and 25.227(b)(3)(ii)
of the Commission’s rules, Boeing included letters from the operators of all but two of its target
satellites certifying to the information required by the Commission’s rules, including the fact that
the aggregate ESD limits of the Boeing ESAA system are consistent with the coordination
agreements between the target satellite operator and the operators of adjacent satellite systems
within 6 degrees of orbital separation.2 On September 23, 2014, Boeing filed one of the
remaining letters, for satellite SES-1, and the attached letter for satellite AMC-15 is the last of
the remaining letters.

                                                                                                       Very truly yours,


                                                                                                       _____________________

(@) The proposed Ku—band Earth Station Aboard Aircraft (ESAA) operation of The
Boeing Company has the potential to create harmfulinterference to satellite networks
adjacent to the target satellite(s) that may be unacceptable;

(b) The uplink off—axis EIRP density levels and downlink EIRP density levels at
which Boeing plans to operate, which were provided to SES in a letter dated 22
September 2014 from PaulusJ. Martens of The Boeing Company, are consistent with
the existing coordination agreements for the AMC—15 satellite and the adjacent
satellite networks within 6 degrees of orbital separation from the AMC—15 satellite,
and

(c) The EIRP density levels of the proposed ESAA operations will be included in
future coordination agreements in accordance with FCC rules and regulations.

Please let us know if additional information is required.
