Hi Allison,
I fly quite often, and I use my BookSense XT all of the time when I fly. I have used it with corded headphones, and I have even used it with Bluetooth headphones. I remember that I was one time able to briefly receive a radio station at 19,000 feet. I was briefly trying the radio because I was curious if I could get anything. While you should always adhere to FAA rules and regulations, cycling through the radio or leaving Bluetooth enabled is not going to bring down the plane. Of course, there is a first time for everything. <grin> The most important thing is to not turn on the BookSense during departure or arrival until they say electronic devices may be used. Unless you make a big deal out of what the BookSense can do, the flight attendants will have no idea your unit has an FM radio or Bluetooth, so if you keep to yourself about it, you should be fine.

Firstly, let me just say that I absolutely love the new firmware! I even like the new volume adjustments. My question is probably a little silly, but I am going to be flying from Pittsburgh to San Francisco on Saturday, and I was wondering if there were any precautions besides turning off bluetooth which I should take while using the BSXT during the flight. Does it matter if I cycle past the fm radio as long as I don't keep it on? They're always very adamant about not operating any devices which emit radio frequencies while the flight is in progress.
