Geez. See, I thought that was only on commercial flites. 25 years ago, my FBO had a plane out in San Diego that was phone equipped, but that was before cellphones existed. It was a straight radio-link to landline phone. Actually, I guess it makes little difference to me. I do not have one of those super-whamadine headsets, and I cannot hear a thing on my cellphone with the Coupe engine running.
