Starlink is not “operating” on 1000 aircraft - it only claims to have “contracts” for 1000. It’s believed to be operating on ~200 planes (<100 commercial + >100 business planes). https://x.com/starlink/status/1816109679837319452?s=46&t=SmRs2hs8UVYDbY_ZrGe0XA A new system install costs >$200k, is scheduled months in advance & requires 3 wks of downtime. https://www.prostaraviation.com/starlink-update-6-months-in/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1816220299198665034
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
