                                  Public Interest Statement
                                (Response to Question A21)



       Gogo is a leading provider of in-flight connectivity. The contemplated initial
public offering (“IPO”) will provide additional capital to expand the availability and scope
of Gogo’s services and will strengthen competition in the market for in-flight
communications services. The Commission has previously identified the ability to
access a larger capital market, as well as other benefits of IPOs, as being in the public
interest.1 Therefore, grant of the instant application would serve the public interest,
convenience and necessity.

  See, e.g., North American Numbering Plan Administration Neustar, Inc., Order, 19 FCC Rcd
16982 (rel. Aug. 26, 2004) at ¶ 28 (finding that a transfer of control through an IPO would serve
the public interest by permitting the applicant to access a larger capital market, providing for
more transparency through SEC filings, and increasing incentives to comply with regulatory
requirements).
