Has anyone tried to use a cell phone on a airplane during a flight? I have flown several times since 9/11. Twice going to and from New York and Oregon and several flights to Arizona to Oregon and back. In each flight I would turn on my cell phone to see if I could get a connection.

About a year ago I read on the internet that in order for people to use cell phones on flying aircraft the airplanes would need to have a special antenna installed. This has not begun to happen yet. So my question would be. If you can not get service on your cell phone while flying in an airplane.

I'm not counting the people who used the available at great cost aircraft phones just the ones who are said to have used their cell phones. Just one of the holes in the vast 9/11 story.
