To the best of my knowledge, personal electronics interacts with aircraft operation by interfering with radio navigation receivers. That is not an immunity concern. Does any one on this forum know of a proven case of personal electronics interfering with non-antenna-connected flight-critical avionics? I don't, and further I would say it was either impossible, or the result of extremely poor systems engineering.
