Received my first message from an airplane. Looking at it, there was a United Fight on it's way from Chicago to Cincinnati passing overhead when I got this.

Test, UA flight 808

Disgusting. Hopefully nothing comes of it and people stop before someone takes notice and paints the project in a bad light.

Disrupting flights and violating FAA regulations is exactly what we don't want Meshtastic in the mainstream news for.

FAA has no regulations on this.

It's cellular that you're not allowed on airplane and that's the FCC, not FAA. And it's so cell towers don't get DDoS'd, not so airplanes don't fall out of the sky.
