RS, Thank you for the reply. Does anyone know for sure about the true state of preparation for the Zenit launch and how Kazakstan is affected by the Russian crisis? Is Kazakstan's currency affected by the rouble? Is anyone familiar? Thanks for any info, Don

Gee, LOR's getting beat up worse than GMH and almost as bad as SPOT; hard to understand, considering that while D3 failure is bad for sat industry in general because it will drive up insurance rates and delay some launches, Skynet stands to pick up some extra revenue and maybe long term customers due to delay in Panamsat deployment; Orion may well have GMH on the hook for delivery in orbit w/ a liquidated damages clause in event of delay that will mitigate losses due to O3 delay; Schedule for other near term launches on Ariane, Protona and Zenit won't be effected by D3 failure.
