So what is that all about? Why would airlines have dect phones that would be connected to a landline rather than mobiles.
I would guess that there is potential to interfere with navigational/radio equipment, especially if the product might be non-conforming, so putting out a higher power broadcast than rules permit. Baby monitors made in China were a massive issue for ATC in the past.

Why are folk on here surprised about the squeeze on biz? Writing has been on the wall for years. Niche market and Stansted will be forced into similar in good time.
