Thanks for the info 'vibes', but here is some more info from Wikipedia that I think will show that ABWNs network isn't too far off from working.

NASA's OPALS annonuced a break through in space to ground LASER communication.
In December 2014, uploading at a speed of 400 megabits per second. The system is also able to re-acquire tracking after the signal is lost due to cloud cover.

Laser communication has also been demonstrated on aircraft and high altitude platforms (drones). Applications can be found in the transmission of large data amounts directly from an aircraft to the ground or in the interconnection of stratospheric platforms to build up high-performance backbone networks. A laser link from a jet platform (Tornado) was successfully demonstrated for the first time in November 2013. A LASER terminal of the German company Mynaric was used to transmit data at a rate of 1 Gbit/s over a distance of 60 KM and at a flight speed of 800 Km/h.

ABWN is currently working with Mynaric.
