Let's be honest, if there was even a 0.000000000001% chance of this being true do you think we would all still be allowed to flout the announcements? You have to believe for every 200 seat airplane there are at least 5 phones on the entire time.
And FYI, the biggest 'real' danger could be phone left on in hold baggage which could interfere with the cargo hold smoke alarm wireless system and trigger a false alert to the cockpit of a cargo fiire.
as a FA...............this is a challenge dat we have to go thru day in day....got myself suspended twice coz of some stupid Pax complaint dat i demanded him to switched off his phone...
If a cellphone is as disruptive as it is portrayed to be, could it not be a potential weapon for terriorists? Find where crucial sensors are located in the passenger area, and switch on 2 or three mobiles that s/he is carrying on them! Boom, down comes the plane!
This reports failed to convince me. Either this report is accurate, or we have a HUGE gaping gap in international aviation security.
@SylvesteR1285 and how do you know something didn't happen? Like he said it may show realistic issues, for example when landing the ILS may say you are to the right or left and you could physically be on center! Are you a pilot?
