Verizon said the FCC shouldn’t now move forward on rules that would allow voice calls on commercial flights. “There are interference concerns that merit further study before any system permitting the operation of mobile devices during flight, known as an ‘Airborne Access System,’ is allowed to operate in U.S. airspace,” Verizon said (http://bit.ly/1k322e5). Replies to the commission’s “Expanding Access to Mobile Wireless Services Onboard Aircraft” rulemaking were due May 16 and posted by the agency Tuesday in docket 13-301.
