 RARPSL join:1999-12-08 Suffern, NY | Airspace is a Public Resource I seem to remember something to the effect that the airspace above land is not owned by the owner of the land but is a public resource and transit through the airspace above the land is not subject to trespass or other restrictions. Thus a plane flying over a "dry" state (but neither flying from or to that state) can serve liquor while in transit though that state's airspace. The same rules apply to radio transmissions such as cell phone signals. OTOH, building cell towers on the Indian Lands (or running Phone Cables or Fiber through them) is a different issue since that is disturbing (or confiscating for a "right of way" via eminent domain) the physical land itself and must be paid for. |

 | But if the indians wanted to be mean they can still built towers to block those signals right? just like a country can stop a plane from flying through its airspace? |
