“:A radio transmitter, placed in the vicinity of the normal VR location, using low power, transmitting conflicting control signals could possibly defeat any attempts by someone hoping to use a drone to effect the crash of a heavy commercial aircraft. I am not sure how this would affect the Airbus - fly by wire aircraft”

Just how, exactly, does a fly-by-wire aircraft be interfered with by RF signals?

That I have no idea of. Did you notice that I said “I am not sure how this would affect the Airbus - fly by wire aircraft” If your Smart phone must be turned off for takeoff and landing they are susceptible to radio waves, I presume. I don’t know anything about Airbus aircraft except I have waited in line behind them to takeoff.
