Absolutely correct I know ham radio operators that bounce signals off of high flying jet aircraft undersides increasing the range of a 2 meter, and 440 mhz transmission by many hundreds of miles. This has been going on for decades and no harm has ever been done.

Yeah it would have to be a lot of power with a highly directional antenna, that is tracking at 600 mph. They would also have to cover certain frequencies. They could go manual then to avoid a crash. I don't think it would affect GPS mounted on the top of the plane or even a compass, altimeter, etc. Good luck with that. |

Also there is a limit on how much power they can transmit. |
