Pilots Petition Starlink Over New, Slower Aviation Internet Tiers

General aviation pilots have initiated a petition urging SpaceX to reconsider its new Starlink Aviation service plans. The new tiers offer significantly slower speeds, capped at 20 Mbps, for a higher price than the "Mobile Priority" plans many pilots previously used. Started by the administrator of a general aviation social media group, the petition argues the new structure makes reliable in-flight internet unaffordable for the GA community. It highlights that pilots are being phased out of older, faster plans that were well-suited for their needs. The signatories are asking SpaceX to re-evaluate the new pricing or allow GA users to continue with the more viable Mobile Priority plans.
