Delta to Put Wi-Fi on ALL Domestic Flights

[645ci]

Uh... no. Cell signals screw with some of the navigation tools. Telephone carriers have no say in the rules that airlines make. This isn't a huge development... wifi has been available on flights since mid-2003.

Uh... no. Nowadays they dont ..

A physics TA of mine once told me the real reason they did not allow cell phone calls on planes is that the tele companies are unable to triangulate your calls at this elevation (assuming you can even get a cell signal in flight) so they are unable to charge the correct customer. It basically had nothing to do with inference of flight equipment--just the benjamins!

Lol. You know, I have a bridge for sale for a good price? Actually,
there is NO need to triangulate a cell phone to charge the user.

Watch Mythbusters. They have an episode on cell phone on airplanes.
