The need for air to ground communication in Air Traffic Control (ATC) is discussed and a summary on the birth of aeronautical satellite communication is given. The standardization of an aeronautical mobile communications service by the International Civil Aviation Organization is reported. The feasibility analysis of satellite communications for ATC carried out by the French civil aviation is described. This 'South Pacific Trial' is regarded as a first step towards a full operational implementation.
