[routing-wg]BGP Update Report

That's exactly what we're doing.  The aircraft traffic is sent to one of
five satellite ground stations around the globe and released there to
the Internet.  To maintain connectivity for things like VPNs, we
withdraw and re-announce the route for each plane as it is handed off
from one ground station to another wrt satellite beams.

Refer to several earlier presentations at NANOG.

BTW, you may have seen the public announcement ~month ago that Connexion
is closing down its commerical service by year end, so you won't be
seeing these after that.
