Pilot explains why you should put your phone in 'airplane mode' during flights

If you've been on a flight since the invention of smart phones, you know you're asked to do one thing: put it in airplane mode.

The article from Yahoo News discusses the reasons behind the rule of putting phones in airplane mode during flights. A pilot explains that while mobile phones do not interfere with the plane's navigation or communication systems as much as they used to due to technological advancements, the rule persists for several reasons. Firstly, it's a precautionary measure to avoid any potential interference with the aircraft's sensitive electronic systems. Secondly, it ensures that passengers are not distracted by their devices during critical phases of flight like takeoff and landing, which are statistically the most dangerous parts of the journey. Additionally, having phones in airplane mode helps maintain a quieter cabin environment, reducing the noise from multiple devices. The pilot also notes that while the risk is minimal, airlines prefer to err on the side of caution, and it's easier to enforce a blanket rule than to assess each device's potential for interference.
