I don't understand why many posters here think that Delta has walked away. Below are the company's comments from 4 months ago. They imply what was announced today.

from 4 months ago....

What’s next for SMN?

Looking ahead, SMN said its immediate next step now that it had received FAA certification would be to streamline the path to commercialisation for the CVM technology.The company said it would re-engage with major US airlines that had previously expressed a strong interest in the technology to better understand their current fleet plans and maintenance requirements.While the company will assess the wider aviation industry, its short-term focus will be on airlines that currently have Intelsat 2Ku Wi-Fi antennas installed to highlight how they can directly benefit from the CVM tech.SMN said its revenue model goal would remain to provide point-of-sales and licensing agreements for the use of its test equipment.The company will initially focus on a limited number of applications while it works to meet initial production demand and ramp-up requirements for future production.
