GPS does not work through the fuselage of a aluminum airplane. I've tried. More than once.

The first responders in this situation are the flight attendants so it should ring the flight attendant's phone. By the way, if GPS works in the air for small aircraft pilots, then why wouldn't it work for cellphones? The last known fix should be 100% up to date and 100% useless. --Michael Dillon -- Alex Rubenstein, AR97, K2AHR, [email protected], latency, Al Reuben Net Access Corporation, 800-NET-ME-36, http://www.nac.net
