Julius Genachowski, chairman of the Federal Communications Commission is requesting that the Federal Aviation Administration allow more electronics on airplanes. That means you can listen to your iPod or use other devices from the time you take off and until landing but not your cell phone, that would still have to be completely off.
Genachoski also argued the importance of allowing people to use these devices on planes as more Americans become increasingly reliant on devices for work and pleasure. He wrote” They empower people to stay informed and connected with friends and family, and they enable both large and small businesses to be more productive and efficient, helping drive economic growth and boost U.S. competitiveness.”
