Dortch Secretary Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, SW Washington, DC 20554 Re: Astronics AeroSat Corporation – Section 1.65 Submission, File No. SES-MFS-20170319-00302, Call Sign E140087 Dear Ms. Dortch: Astronics AeroSat Corporation (“Astronics AeroSat”), pursuant to Section 1.65 of the Commission’s Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 1.65, seeks to clarify the record in connection with the above-referenced, uncontested earth stations aboard aircraft (“ESAA”) blanket license modification application proceeding. On June 16, 2017, I participated in a teleconference with FCC staff regarding the preferred frequencies for ESAA terminal operations with the IS-33E satellite. Although Astronics AeroSat had indicated in an earlier submission that it would accept a narrower range of frequencies for communication with IS-33E, I indicated during the call that the applicant’s strong preference would be to include the full range of frequencies included in the original modification application in any FCC license grant. I apologize for any confusion caused by the delay in submitting this clarification. Finally, on behalf of Astronics AeroSat, I wish to express our appreciation to the Commission and the International Bureau staff copied below for their diligence in reviewing such complex proposals for global ESAA operating authority. The Commission’s support for satellite broadband mobility applications, now collectively referred as “earth stations in motion” or “ESIMs,” continues to enhance U.S. leadership in advanced mobile broadband technologies around the world. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions regarding this matter. Respectfully submitted, Carlos M. Nalda LMI Advisors cc (w/ att.): Paul Blais Cindy Spiers Trang Nguyen
