Nowadays, mobile phones and other gadgets do not pose any serious danger to modern aircraft. The requirement to turn off electronics is more of a tradition than a necessity. “The performance of such rituals increases the readiness of passengers to obey the requirements of the crew, and also allows you to identify suspicious from the point of view of safety of persons,” writes “Around the world”. However, the real danger to passengers and crew included devices do not carry.
