>As a rule, the FAA isn't in favor of allowing items on a plane that can go "boom!" The agency would prefer that airplanes stay in the sky until they slowly descend onto the runway of their destination. With that in mind, the FAA got together with the TSA and major U.S. airlines this weekend to determine whether the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 should be banned on flights.
>Meanwhile, the FAA has yet to make a decision about whether to allow the Galaxy Note 7 to board a plane. Actually, what the FCC does with the device is largely up to Samsung. The manufacturer has not officially recalled the phone, as pointed out by Consumer Reports. If it decides to do so, government entities will need to get involved, and anyone selling the device can be criminally charged. If the Galaxy Note 7 is recalled, the device will not be allowed inside an aircraft whether carried by passenger or crew. The phablet will also be prohibited from entering an aircraft as carry on or checked luggage.
This is why you buy iPhones and not cheap imitations.
That's just ridiculous, especially once they start sending out replacements, you'd hardly be able to police which device is a replaced and which isn't.
Also, a fire the size of a cellphone is literally not an issue for an airliner. Especially not in the passenger cabin.

You have to be the dumbest person on Sup Forums

Cockpits are locked during flight

But why that user said is true, a lithium-ish battery doesn't have enough power to bring down an airplane.
Matthew Edwards
Did you know that fire spreads at an alarming rate?
Aiden Anderson
>durr how does fire work
Brody Richardson
But they are opened at key critical points in time.
Juan Clark
You can't get into the cockpit. And if you can, you don't really need a phone to do all that.
Joseph Carter
You are aware that they extensively use fire resistant materials on planes and have things like fire extinguishers, don't you?
Fires on planes are a serious issue. They use materials that are less likely to catch fire and the crew are well trained. If anything starts producing smoke in the passenger cabin there will be alarms and cabin crew will be there in seconds with fire extinguishers.
There is more chance of a house burning down from the phone catching fire, and some guy in Australia had one on his fucking bed in a hotel when it caught fire while he was sleeping and it just made a black mark on the sheets.
Ethan Anderson
I forgot that passengers and their belongings were all wrapped in fire resistant materials.
Regardless of the probability of it taking down the plane, that is NOT a risk that can be taken.
Samsung phones from here on out are a fire risk and people should be cautious around them.
Ryder Stewart
Every single battery is a risk of fire.

It's not samsung exclusively, lithium batteries are fucking scary and phone ones aren't even that bad - go check out some youtube videos of li-po battery explosions.
All this talk about banning bullshit. Make them stay inside fire proof bags in luggage.
John Sanders
Nah bro all that melting magnesium and plastic is fine to have on your sealed environment

Just so we're clear here, this is what these people think wouldn't be a problem in a plane
Huh... That could be easily adapted for a terrorrist-type attack.

This is bad news irregardless if you have a Note 7 or not. Now your going to have to literally take your phone out of it's case completely, show off the logo and whatever else to TSA agents. Just another step of stupid shit you have to complete to go through airport security.

was buying note 7 part of your plan?
Jayden Russell
Funniest thing I've read all year
Jaxson Brown
That battery is out of the phone though. It is a completely different scenario with the fire started in a completely different manner.
Literally any Li-ion battery will do that if you stick a knife in it. The main difference between the battery being enclosed in a case and in that video is that it is oxygen starved. You should know what this means.
Landon Gray
terrorrist attacks with samsungs when?

Well maybe they should consider a brand new FCC approved explosion container to carry your N7 on planes. 5.99$/ trip >otherfags btfo t. TSA

yeah sure fucko. I'm not going to die in an aircraft fire because some asshole was using a proven unsafe memephone.

>What if the passenger barges into the cockpit, locks himself in there, and uses the fumes of the burning phone to incapacitate the pilot and co-pilot? There's an issue if he's able to barge into the cockpit in the first place We should ban Thinkpads because Sup Forumsentoomen can attack security with them

10-15 terrorist on a plane. All poking a hole in the phones battery at the same time.
