Hi,
Sorry I cannot find the awnser using the search, maybe no one knows the answer.

When will Eutelsat 28A go out of service/ be decommissioned?

You're right. When the 2G is in place Eutelsat will lease some capacity on that craft from SES (see several press releases about the agreements after the outcome of the law suits). Maybe the 28A will stay as back up and for feeds, but most likely it will be relocated to another location.

I'm not going crazy then, shouldn't be too long before 2G rocks up. :)
