RE: US Bill Introduced To Ban Onboard Voice Calls

I don't even get any signal up there on my cell phone.. I'm sure they're talking about Skype or FaceTime while on the wifi network. But, what's the difference between two people chatting on the plane next to you and a person who is talking over the phone next to you?

Could Windowless Passenger Airliners Be Done?

With the introduction of cameras on some of the airliners today, could a few cameras be placed throughout the outside of the aircraft to basically replace windows on aircraft? I see a few pros to this: We all know windows are aerospace engineers' worst nightmare. They are one of the main causes of s...

Is there a reason that the Cargo part of the Combi is in the front and not the back of the aircraft? I always thought it would make more sense, since the Pilots would have access to the lavatories in the Cabin.. Unless they have their private ones up front in the Combis.
