beginning November17, 2017 for test communications between Earth Stations Aboard Aircraft
(ESAA) stations with Eutelsat 172B ($3021) satellite at the 172° E.L. orbital location in the
frequency bands 14000—14500 MHz (Earth—to—space) and 11450—11700 MHz (space—to—Earth)
under the following conditions:

1. Operations shall not cause harmful interference to or claim protection from other lawfully
operating stations and it shall cease transmission(s) immediately upon notice of such
interference.

2. Grant of this authorization is without prejudice to any determination that the Commission may
make regarding pending or future Boeing applications.

3. Applicant shall utilize antennas with the following outputlimits: Bocing Phased Array
Antenna, MELCO Reflector Terminal, and TECOM KuStream 1500 with respective maximum
aggregate output EIRP for all carriers of51.2 dBw, 46.7 dBw and 44.8 dBw.

4. Grant ofthis authorization does not authorize U.S. Market Access of Eutelsat 172B for earth
stations operating in the US&P.

5. Transmitter(s) must be turned offduring antenna maintenanceto ensure compliance with the
FCC—specified safety guidelines for human exposure to radiofrequency radiation in the region
between the antenna feed and the reflector. Appropriate measure must also be taken to restrict
access to other regions in which the earth station‘s power flux density levels exceed the specified
guidelines. See The FCC‘s OET Bulletin 65 (available on—line at www.fee.gow/oetlrfsafety

6. Anyaction taken or expense incurred as a result of operations pursuantto this STA is solely
at Bocing‘s risk.

                     APPLICATION FOR SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY

         Pursuant to Section 25.120 of the Commission‘s rules, the Boging Company ("Boeing")

requests special temporary authority ("STA") to permit communications between its licensed

Earth Stations Aboard Aircraft ("ESAA")‘ terminals and Eutélsat E172B (E172B) as authorized

points of communication.

         The Boeing Broadband Satellite Network ("BBSN") currently operates with multiple

satellite points of communications, including satellite E172A at orbital location 172° E.L.

The E172A satellite is scheduled to be replaced during the 4th quarter of 2017. Boeing has

identified the E172B satellite as a suitable replacement to support Boeing‘s operations on behalf

of the United States Government. Boeing has therefore applied to modify its ESAA license to

begin operating using the E172B satelitte." This STA request is filed to permit testing to begin

with the new satellite during the pendency of the modification application. Boeing requests that

this approval be provided by November 15, 2017 and extend for a period of sixty days.
