Please excuse me Bruce for hijacking back to the previous subject of rural internet.

Undertoad,

I saw this after reading your post from above. About the expense of hard wired land lines for broadband in rural areas.

There are no costs shown in the article but it seems as though it might be expandable enough and have a service life long enough to make high speed internet profitable in extremely remote areas.

Then again, it's not my area of expertise. You may have seen this type of tech before?

"the aircraft could be used to broadcast 5G coverage to remote areas, claiming the aircraft is a low-cost solution to launching expensive Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites."
