A friend of mine travelling from the UK to Holland swears that the following announcement was made as the aircraft pushed back: "Would Ian please turn off his mobile phone as we can read his texts on the cockpit display". Apparently the cockpit display went blank and the chap's text message appeared on it. Personally I think it was a wind up. Am I right?

LOL! Sounds like a combination of a good 'recce' by cabin crew, good communication and an ability to get your message across!

Nice one. :D

A very dipolmatic way to have all "Ians" turn off their mobile phones

Try it

Use bluetooth on your phone to detect others which are active.

Had a great laugh asking 'biggus Dickus' to kindly switch off. :O
