The first satellite launch is scheduled for the middle of February.
Volga-Dnepr Group’s global director aerospace, Axel Kaldschmidt, said: “As an air cargo operator, we understand all too well how important stable internet access is. We are, therefore, especially honoured to be part of the OneWeb constellation project, which will enhance the quality of life for customers globally.”
