Specifically, we assessed the impact on severe weather avoidance, controller efficiency, controller-pilot communications, and the safety of airspace operations when controllers managed traffic during adverse weather conditions.
I once supported such a move: The prohibition was based on the now-discredited belief that cell phones could fatally interfere with the aircraft pilots' communications; also, in-craft phones are legalized thievery you pay outrageous fees to use 'em.

But a passion for aeronautics led him to become a 1000+ hour pilot, and joined communications and imaging solar drone startup Titan Aerospace as a founding team member.
The Tenerife airport disaster resulted from pilot error and communications failure, while the Japan Airlines Flight 123 and China Airlines Flight 611 crashes stemmed from improper aircraft repair.
The possibility that one of the pilots deliberately disabled communications, then flew the plane to a remote location where it crashed through lack of fuel, is another widely held theory.
Something similar is being proposed for autonomous civil drones, with ground-based pilots responding to communications and air-traffic control instructions as if they were in the cockpit.In many ways automating a ship should be a lot easier than automating aircraft, Mr Levander believes.
The Bellagio meeting was followed by a series of exchange visits during which the networks shared approaches to pandemic preparedness across regions and jointly piloted new information and communications technology (ICT) tools for communicating about disease outbreaks.
A separate EU ocean governance package on Thursday will launch several programmes to protect the world's water bodies, including a pilot project using satellite communications to track illegal fishing worldwide.
Shashi Tharoor, Secretary General Kofi Annan's communications director, piloted the project through the organization, telling skeptical United Nations bureaucrats that it was a new way to "propagate the message of the U.N".
In wideband mobile communications, the pilot-based signal correction scheme has been proven a feasible method for OFDM systems.
