Officials at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on Friday ordered staff “to begin finding tens of millions of dollars for a Starlink deal” to upgrade air traffic control communications, anonymous sources have told Rolling Stone.

According to Rolling Stone, employees with the Federal Aviation Administration were told on Friday to “begin finding tens of millions of dollars for a Starlink deal,” after The Washington Post reported that the FAA may cancel its $2.

The Federal Aviation Administration is considering awarding Musk’s SpaceX a contract to provide Starlink internet service for its air traffic control communications network, possibly replacing a deal with Verizon, which was awarded a contract for the FAA’s internet technology in 2023, according to multiple reports.
