In this video today it can be seen that the person is showing the view outside the plane and friends are joking with each other and in a few moments the plane gets pulled up and flames are seen in the video. Questions are being raised on this video that in flight, the phone has to be kept in flight mode or it has to be kept off. How was the network coming in the above flight that Facebook Live was happening today? If there was no network in the flight, how was Facebook Live being done? How is this possible? In this post, we are answering all these questions.
Does internet work in flight?
There are some flights in which in-flight internet facility is provided. In-flight Wi-Fi can be used for everything from Internet browsing to watching online videos. In flights that do not have this facility, Internet access is limited to the time of takeoff and landing.
When the flight takes off or lands, due to the proximity to the ground, mobile networks are available and users are able to use their mobile internet. Now talk about that video, if you see in the video, it will be understood that he has reached Nepal and was doing Facebook Live just before landing to show the outside view. The deceased must have got the signal of the phone and due to this he was doing Facebook Live, but what was going to happen in the next moment, no one had any idea about it.
How did you get the video?
As it is seen in the video that the plane crashed while doing live, so where did you get this video from? It is likely that the video has been retrieved from the phone. People are calling it Facebook Live, now it is not known whether it was Facebook Live or a video recording. Facebook Live does not appear on the profile until you close it. It is also difficult that someone has shot their live when they are live, usually one does not shoot someone’s live and if they do, they would also be seen in this video. So from where this video came, it cannot be confirmed now.
How dangerous can be not keeping the phone in flight mode in the plane?
Before take-off in the plane, it is said that either switch off the phone or put it in flight mode. It is advised to do so, yet some people do not believe it. In such a situation, the question arises that can there be a possibility of any accident due to this? Let me tell you, although the answer is ‘no’, but still it is advisable to do so in view of the safety standards. The waves emitted from the phone’s signal can cause electromagnetic interference, which can cause disturbance in flight.
How dangerous are mobile signals?
The pilot knows the details of flight height etc. through the radio altimeter. Not with one or two phones in the plane, but due to a large number of phones being on, there may be some problem in receiving these signals. Due to this, the pilot can get wrong signals and due to wrong information about the height of the plane, a big accident can also happen.
