> Those 737s aren't new, they certainly had permission to use that spectrum for years
This statement seems to be at odds with what many others in this thread are saying: that they were never approved to operate in this band. I don't know enough about this issue to know who is correct--do you happen to have a source for that since you are certain of it?
- jaywalk 5y agoThey never had permission to use the 5G spectrum, and in fact never did. The issue is that the filtering is so shoddy that signals more than 200MHz away from the band they are using can cause issues. The fault for that lies squarely on Boeing.
- Lascaille 5y ago>The fault for that lies squarely on Boeing. Why? They don't make the radar altimeters and multiple aircraft manufacturers are affected. Why is Boeing at fault for issues that (also) manifest themselves on Embraer and Airbus aircraft?
- jaywalk 5y agoBoeing is ultimately responsible for every part that goes into their planes. They didn't manufacture the equipment, of course, but they signed off on it meeting their standards.
