Texting while flying? ;(


OK, I'll jump in here with my flame suit on:

With today's smartphones, it's likely that you can just touch a
button and "talk" to your phone to send a message. No different
really than the push-to-talk on the control stick and completely
"stealth".


Where do you guys fly, that your phones work in the air? How high are
you? I don't have much luck with phones in the Western US, which is why
I have Spot.
