Sounds a lot like maybe the airline industry should be upgrading their stuff instead of whining. -- nm - sycor Jan 19, 07:19 6
- The airplane manufacturers would have to provide an upgrade I figure and I'm not sure they have -- nm - ty97 Jan 19, 07:22 5
  - (Also though why should the airlines have to incur all that cost for the benefit of the cell providers, ya know?) -- nm - ty97 Jan 19, 07:23 4
    - Why should the airlines be able to halt progress that can benefit everyone (faster cell service) instead of upgrading outdated equipment? - sycor Jan 19, 07:40 2
      - *IS* is outdated though? -- nm - Andie Jan 19, 08:00 1
        
        Can't raelly. But from the article that was posted they do point out that newer planes will not have issues with the C band being used. -- (edited) - sycor Jan 19, 08:23
    - They'll obviously need another bail out. -- nm - Qale Jan 19, 07:24
Fortunately, C-Band was never used for anything ever before. -- nm - Mop Jan 19, 07:05
