Hello guys, I'm back here to continue my post's series about the enchanting world of aircrafts and aviation. So, this post I will talk about the old, and why not, well-known rule: It's prohibited use of phones along the flight time.
The rule which I refer me,It's the one which determines is totally not allowed the use of any means of communication on airplanes, in heights below 3,000 m due to the interference in the aircraft's signals . This rule applies even when the airplane is on the flight mode.
The reason for that restriction is simple: our gadgets like tablets, iPods, Smartphones, laptops emit radio waves to communicate with mobile networks and Internet. On the other hand, aircrafts belong avionics which keep and support the air navigation working properly, It's theoretically thought the radio waves emitted by communication devices are able to cause harm to the good functioning of plane on its flying. One solution for this prohibition it could be the manufacture of devices which emit signals less strong indeed!
No accident was proved to have happened because of our modern gadgets so far, but US researchers are in search of the answer to that issue, and so solve the mystery providing us an ultimate reply to this question. Until there, It's better all of us folllow the present rule so that we cannot face no bad experience when flying, and the most important: it hasn't it just because simple glances at our social networks' pages.
See you again next post guys, Cheers!!!

Yes I agree with Noa ,specially these days ,in my free time I prefer to seat and see noa :D when she is enjoying from silent :)))
I never feel the need to check my e-mails or other people Facebook status every few seconds, not during normal hours, and definitely not on the plane. But I am not surprise to see some people always fidgeting on their seats once the announcement to switch off their phones was communicated. They seemed didn't know what to do with their free time. For me, I prefer watching the clouds, and just enjoying the silence.
