Are cellphones and laptops really dangerous to flight?
  • it's all about cost

    The public demands such a high standard of safety from air travel that its not surprising cell phones have been prohibited. It's very expensive to prove cell phones are safe on aircraft and with no offsetting revenue for this expense the carriers understandably haven't been interested especially because a lot travelers are not going to happy with the person next to them chattering for hours.

    I hope the pico cells run into technical difficulties and do not show up for years. I'm much happier in a no chattering cabin.
