Abstract The FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 directed the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to conduct a study on the impact of the use of cell phones for voice communications in an aircraft during a flight in scheduled passenger air transportation. FAA identified non- US civil aviation authorities that had experience with air carriers that allow the use of cellular telephones with on-board cellular telephone base stations. The non-US civil aviation authorities reported that their regulations and policies related to use of cell phones in flight are very similar to the US regulations and policies. The civil aviation authorities reported no documented occurrences of cell phones affecting flight safety on aircraft with on-board cellular telephone base stations. None of the civil aviation authorities reported any cases of air rage or flight attendant interference related to passengers using cell phones on aircraft equipped with on-board cellular telephone base stations.
