“THE MASTER wishes you a pleasant flight.” The plane takes off, and the phones start ringing. Those that do not play are already engaged in conversations started by other passengers. That to cover the noise of the engines (and other people on the phone), would tend to increase the volume of the voice. Welcome to the era of prohibition fallen, the one where you can talk on a cell phone on the plane. In the U.S., the Federal Commission announces that the rules in this sense “should be revised, are outdated and restrictive.” It aims at not only use of electronic devices for takeoff and landing, but also free conversation over the clouds. Hyperconnected also in the air, not to miss a moment of what is happening on the ground. But to the surprise front of discontent for a possible opening widens.

In addition to the undeniable fact that the plane is the last outpost of the concept of inaccessibility, for the annulment of privacy like that, there would be technical problems. Between the unions of the flight attendants in the U.S. shows that the conversations aloud could become a “cause for dispute among the passengers, and therefore a risk to flight safety.” After a call to turn down the volume insomm the aircraft may start flying even slaps. With a scene from “Airplane! World” a few decades later and with the risk of disturbing even the aliens. The problem could be solved by a division of space in the cabin, and not between telefonanti telefonanti. But the problems likely to end up focusing on one area of ??the aircraft. And thoughts are in a great classic movie comedy with Leslie Nielsen.

The idea of ??course like phone companies, but the risk of being next to a neighbor’s voice cumbersome and spoken fluently remains even with this seal of approval. E ‘for this reason that airplanes are the headphones to enjoy the entertainment system of the flight, in order to avoid that the neighbors should listen to our favorite music or the sound of our films that the outside world could care less. Other airlines may start providing refreshments and in addition to the cover of wool, a pair of headphones carpenter disposable. But inevitably passes the ball to them, after that the FCC has approved the opening of mobile phones in flight, will be the individual companies to decide what policy to adopt. The risk of being in a cage full of flying could be a human voice screaming detrimental to the financial statements of the carriers. Maybe flights at high volume will cost a little ‘less, despite the better chance. Maybe it will be allowed to speak until the take-off, and then texting until landing. Surely the marketing offices will have to work with, do not forget to protect your ears and the nervous system of the passengers.
