Line-of-sight. If you're 4-5 miles up with no blockers except the aircraft skin, you get to confuse a lot of towers at once.

- hombre_fatal 4y agoMust not be very much of an issue since there’s basically zero messaging around what airplane mode is for. Not once has any of my carriers even said “please turn on airplane mode to help the network”. Instead it’s an in-passing recommendation made by air stewardesses so boilerplate it feels like superstition. I wonder what the actual impact is and how that relates to the low effort messaging around airplane mode.
