So the illegal activity is not just *making calls* while in the air, but

takeoff checklist.

I hope pilots will keep their takeoff checklists brief and pertinent to
safe flight. Don't clutter it with things that aren't causing problems.
If you are concerened about it, put it on the checklist you use after
your preflight list, but before you crawl into the cockpit.
