If a Delta-launched G* sat has 20 years worth of fuel, and Loral regularly manufactures GEOs with a lifespan in excess of 14 years, is it then safe to say that at least some of the G* constellation will last twice its estimated lifetime? Wouldn't the additional usage of these be worth the hassle/cost of launching all of them on Deltas? 7-13 extra years is a lot. Or do we figure the mechanical reliability rating is in the 7 year figure as well? Dragonfly PS- according to the Soyuz launch kit referenced in the previous message the Satellite life is a "minimum of 7 1/2 years" and each one weighs approx. 450kg
