FYI Starlink Mini on sale - 299

Yep, my plane has a skylight (like sunroof) which is why my Amazon list shows the suction mount contraption.

I got the tripod today, it's really nice and looks like it will work with any of the Starlinks. If you're looking for a tripod, this one is worth a look.

I saw that you mentioned airplane. I heard somewhere that you can't use the Starlink over 100 mph. Not a problem for us - we rarely travel over 100 mph in our motorhome.

I have a cub so that also typically isn't an issue either , however, it's not for in flight. It's for stop overs, airplane camping, etc. The mini is versatile for so many uses, neat capability.

my dad had a couple of small planes - one was a Cessna two seater. He would pick me up and fly me back to university three hours away and it took only an hour. I remember he was doing 100 miles an hour.
he tried to teach me enough about flying that I might command the plane if something happened to him. And how to get out of emergency situations. But I'm afraid my lessons ended after I threatened him with bodily harm when he demonstrated a stall to me. I was still gasping in fright from the first one, and he says, "did you hear that warning whine?" and did it AGAIN!
I was very polite to my dad ...I would never shout at him or speak disrespectfully....but I did then.

I just want to say…the awesomeness of this little sucker is off the charts. Inevitably, the time will come when you can carry a Starlink of some sort in your hip pocket like a cellphone, but for now, this thing is untouchable IMO.

We are heading out Sunday so we will see how ours works. I have connected several times here at the house and it has been great.
Dr appointments have gotten into travel the last couple of months. We are both in good shape so that’s a plus.

Starlink is great - easy to setup, easy to use, easy to move, no worry about data caps and solid speed/performance.
Only 2 downsides:
1) Tree coverage is not your friend, even if it helps cool the coach
2) Monthly cost is pretty high
