    So what you're saying is...there's a cell tower every 7,999 feet?




    Think.
    No, you think...

    That plane was traveling at an estimated 500 mph between 25,000 and 30,000 feet...

    To make a cellular phone call, the phone would have to lock on to a tower...

    It is possible to connect, but at that altitude and speed the phone will try to connect to multiple towers resulting in a scrambled signal and dropped call...

    And 11 years ago it was even more unlikely...

      I bet there are a lot of communications companies that will be surprised to hear this!

      And my wife and I went there on our honeymoon and I had no AT&T service on my iPhone...

        There's no way (and it's been proven) cell phones could have been used above 8,000 feet...
        You must have done very poorly at school with such an incredibly short attention span.

        As has been explained on this site maybe around 50 times so far they didn't use cell phones, they used airphones.

        I'll post this again in 3 months time when you get confused all over again.

          The ones with Camaros... tend to lean more Libertarian.

          Real Republicans would only allow 1-2 broke down pickup trucks in a properly decorated front yard. Plus come on... this is the 21st century. The sofa and fridges are in the garage for formal parties.

                  Politicians MAKE THE DECISIONS, fuckstumper! Not the military, they just pull the trigger. There are thousands of unlaunched cruise missiles, arty pieces, bombs, etc that could be used any time. But only the leaders have the power to tap those kind of resources of death...

                        More wrong facts, dummy. Any plane crash can have "miles of debris" in a field. The "debris" was often paper from the flight. They weren't using "cell phones"! They were using AIR PHONES! Even the fucking retarded, money-whore "truthers" from Loose (stool) Change had to backpedal on that one and shift their conspiracy bullshit arguments to something else not-yet debunked...

                              "At 8:52, in Easton, Connecticut, a man named Lee Hanson received a phone call from his son Peter, a passenger on United 175. His son told him: “I think they’ve taken over the cockpit—An attendant has been stabbed— and someone else up front may have been killed. The plane is making strange moves. Call United Airlines—Tell them it’s Flight 175, Boston to LA.

                              Press reports confirm that Peter Hanson was using his cell (i.e it was not an air phone).
