Very well said Neo_Geo. Thank you for the explaination and web site.

Due to possible interference with communication and navigation systems it is "company policy" to prohibit the operation of certain PED's in the cabin. There are 3 classifications of phase of flight when PED's may be operated in the A/C cabin. 1. At any time. 2. Only while aircraft is parked and the A/C door is open. 3. Allowed only in flight above 10000 feet(may not be operated during taxi, takeoff, approach, and landing). GPS receivers(global positioning systems) are listed as a number 2. This update is as of 10-01-02. Where on the site did you find this? I'm curious if there have been any changes in the last 7 months. Brian Team A.I. I work for the Airlines and this is a quote from my manual (which is updated on a regular basis) and as of today has not been changed. It is true that each airline has the decision as to whether or not they want GPSr's to be used. As for me I think the concern is GPS devises that have transmitters in them or two way communicator FRS/GRMS radios. [This message was edited by thisguytim on July 24, 2003 at 01:56 AM.]
