Route-specific score for RIC–IAD
United Airlines has installed Starlink on 53.4% of its fleet, with over 300 regional aircraft equipped and plans to reach 800 by end of 2026. However, there are zero direct observations of Starlink on the RIC->IAD route, and recent news confirms Starlink mainly on regional and select mainline routes like EWR->LAS. Given the fleet coverage and rollout status, the probability is anchored conservatively near the empirical observation rate (0.0) plus a modest uplift (0.37) reflecting fleet coverage and rollout news, but not exceeding 0.47 to avoid overestimation without direct route sightings.
