"I'm on the plane"

Eddie Mair | 14:31 UK time, Wednesday, 26 March 2008


Ofcom has announced that plans are in place to allow passengers on UK-registered aircraft to use their own mobiles while in flight in European airspace. For some time, some airlines have offered passengers in-flight telephone services via the airline's own network. Ofcom said today that the new arrangement will involve passengers' own mobiles connecting to an on-board base station. Both of these must be switched off
during take-off and landing to ensure they do not interfere with mobile networks on the ground.

This is what is saying about it. What do you think?
