I've flown a helicopter with a sat phone, digital mobile and a couple of CDMA mobiles all switched on recieving and making calls and not had any problems. The helicopter has FADEC as well. My opinion is that the only way they can interfere with an aircrafts navigation aids is if some one used a phone to club the pilot unconscious. Other than that, I'm happy to have the punter on the phone anytime.
