Another bird that is just a fond memory now. She operated at various locations around the orbital arc. When she was fully operational she ran a wide beam and a super beam, although I dont have a full set off all the footprints at all the orbital locations.

This first footprint is from the 1991 - 1998 era when she was parked at 16E

Sadly the Eutelsat 2F3 mission ended in December 2004 and she was sent to the junk orbit :(
