Classic, I disagree. Well partly anyway. Mobile phones may not hurt aircraft systems.That does not make them safe.
But can you imagine the absolute horror of being stuck on an aircraft for 8 or more hours with some arrogant little twit who makes loud calls the whole way across the Atlantic, the main point of which is to justify who important he thinks he is?
I am pretty sure I and many others would crack. So unless you want the murder rate on aircraft to rise sharply, please fight the use of phones onboard at every opportunity.
