    On some airplanes you can use them. by aix tom 2005-05-07 10:16:30
At least so I have heard here in Europe.

There are few "experiments" going on with on-board repeaters. The main problem is the height of the plane. To get a connection to the ground the phone must pump up it's emmission power.

That can be circumvented when the phone only has to connect to a repeater on board.
