[maemo-users] "airplane mode" for traveling

[From: skelso at nc.rr.com]

It looks like American Airlines, at least, disallows anything that transmits intentionally.  From their policy at [1]:

"Devices with transmitting capabilities may only be used if the transmit capability is turned off and can be verified by a flight attendant"

and more specifically about something that's likely to use Bluetooth these days (but who knows how long ago they wrote their policy):

"During flight, never use ...a cordless computer mouse"

So no specific mention of Bluetooth, but they're within a hair's breadth of it.
