Yep, and that has pretty much been accomplished in the cargo hold. Because,
they bond all the metal together in an aircraft to avoid picking up static
charges. most is automatic in construction but where you have something like
a gasketed door or shock mount....it comes with it's own bonding wire to
insure that it's electrically grounded (ie bonded) to the rest of the
aircraft.

So, like I said, good luck getting a cell signal into the cargo hold once
all the access doors are secured.


Wrong. Bonding is very different from shielding. A slot antenna is a
example of something bonded, but open to rf waves.

True, but when you put solid metal all around something that is bonded
together, you get *TaDa* a faraday cage which is pretty much the defacto
standard of RF shielding.

Discuss.


Ummm. Probably not justified.


Damn, someone who figured it out without a lot of hoopla. *


But... what if they're actually calling the phone connected to a bad
thing in their check bag?


That happens so often that it is probably on the very edge of everyone's
mind as they start that take off roll down the runway. *

Or do you think that's too harsh?

Unfortunately, there aren't any in that scenario.

Probably. You can, after all, leave the restaurant.

On the other hand, inside a dark theatre would be a good time to practice your garrotte skills.

Well, you should let them finish eating.....after all, their relatives
