      ​@@uslaserguideddemocracyseed1039The reason why all electronics should be turned off and stored during takeoff and landing is because in case of an accident (risk is highest while taking off and landing) a phone, a tablet or a laptop is something you don't want flying around in the cabin...
      Cell services doesn't work above 600 feet anyways... (Which also disproves the 9/11 calls)
      Another reason is that you need to pay attention to the security messages...

      But these are 737s. They typically don't fly it at cruising altitude over oceans for an extended period of time. Most of the time they fly over oceans only on take off or landing at airports that are near coasts. Meaning they loop out over the ocean in whichever direction they need to in order to take off or land.

      If you fly through different time zones and your phone connects to multiple towers, especially if you’ve got a sim from home, your time stamps will be all over the place. I’ve got 3 photos on my iPhone, taken sequentially in the space of 30 seconds over Iran flying on Emirates. One photo is 8:42pm, next is 1:42pm, last is 10:42am. Sydney, local Iran and Milan time. I was using my Australian SIM card, my phone was registering still on Australian towers via the ground in Iran as we flew over, second one was local time current location, last one was retrospectively timestamp when I landed in Italy and turned my phone on. I’m guessing the photo that he’s got that says 9:40am was taken 16 minutes before he sent it.

      The reason why the authorities want cellphones off is that you will have an airplane full of people, let’s say 300 people, whose cellphone is trying to connect to one cell tower righter after take off. And then another cell tower a minute or 2 later. And so on and on at low altitude. Now you have an airplane taking off every minute. So another 300 cell phones trying to connect to multiple towers. It would disrupt cell service in big cities to a point that you couldn’t have any cell towers.

      ​@artgreen6915 no, RVSM delineates 1000 foot vertical separation between aircraft travelling in **opposite** directions from FL290 (29,000') up to FL410 (41,000'). In the same direction it is 2000 feet.
      Eastbound altitudes are odd-numbered thousands, i.e. FL350 and FL370, and westbound they are even, i.e. FL340 and FL360.
      Before RVSM was implemented, above FL290 it actually used to be 2,000' and 4,000' separation respectively.
      All of you have misinterpreted these rules, @2fbDJLL is right.
