So, basically, they don’t want people to be able to say goodbye to their loved ones when terrorists take over the airplane. Great.

The only thing that kept FLT 93 from turning the Capitol Building into a crater and killing most of these very same jerks was cellphone calls.

oh please. this is about folks shouting/disturbing on their cel phone during a flight in normal circumstances. Passengers can already use their phones in extraordinary circumstances like being parked on the tarmac during a ground hold and engine shutdown.

Yeah, and they don’t want people calling Perky Katie or Peter Jnnings while the hijacked airplane is headed straight for the Washington Monument! What about the public’s right to know? The 1st Abendment?

Now there's a point! RE 9-11, didn't quite a bit of information regarding the high jacking come from passengers on the plane using their cell phone to communicate with family, etc.? Be careful what you legislate - you may get it!
