My country or allows the mobile phone to use flight mode

The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) recently stated that it is safe to use mobile phones during flights, including the flight departure and landing phases. This will make it possible to use mobile phones throughout the plane. However, each airline must also make its own safety assessment of this provision.

It will take time for the new regulations to fall. EASA said that electronic devices such as mobile phones can be turned on during commercial airliner flights. However, the airlines need to evaluate this on their own to confirm that the aircraft system will not be affected by signals from portable electronic devices. , and then work out their own implementation guidelines. This means that this new regulation may be delayed in the implementation of some airlines.

Previously, EASA stipulated that passengers must adjust their mobile phones to flight mode during the flight.

“With regard to the use of mobile electronic devices, various airlines may choose different policies. However, the new regulations eliminate the final administrative obstacle for European passengers to make phone calls or use WiFi on any aircraft. The rest is Technical issues," EASA pointed out. However, some analysts have pointed out that it will take time for the new regulations to land.

China is also preparing for China. Zhou Hong, an expert member of the Aviation Public Communications Association, told reporters that in view of the fact that many countries have already liberalized the use of the “flight mode” of mobile phones on aircraft, the Civil Aviation Administration is exploring the use of flying modes above 3,000 meters. The feasibility of the current technical verification has already begun. It is expected that there will be definite results by 2016, and the possibility of liberalization will be great.

In addition, as Air China, China Eastern Airlines and China Southern Airlines have successively tested the WiFi system on the aircraft, telephone calls are also under development. Any Gui Li, head of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, told reporters that the major domestic airlines, telecommunications operators and research institutions are currently preparing for the establishment of the "airborne public mobile communications alliance," focusing on the study and resolution of telephone calls.

â–  How far is it to interpret the phone call?

European civil aviation analysts said that there is currently no cell phone signal at a height of 33,000 feet and therefore it is still not possible to call. At the same time, airlines also need to invest a lot of money in the installation of on-board WiFi equipment. In addition, airline surveys show that most passengers object to the people around them calling during the flight.

“The key to making calls on the plane is to solve the compatibility problem between the mobile phone signal and the aircraft’s electronic navigation system. There are two possible solutions and they are technically mature.” He Guili said that one way is outside the cabin. Install the antenna and get in touch with the ground station through the satellite; the other is to construct the base station along the route and transmit the signal to the air to realize the on-board communication.
