| Re: Thats . . . Hogwash I'll wait for the study details.
CM claims that the risk is "higher than previously believed", a phrase that is, like the press release containing it, amazingly devoid of all specificity.
It could signify a huge risk, or it could mean that the risk has increased from one half second of GPS interference in every 3.6 million flights to one half second of GPS interference in every 3.58 million flights. Without more, little can be discerned.
CM's own press release states that between one and four cellphone calls are (illegally) made from most flights in the northeast US now, but doesn't call for increased enforcement of current laws--which, if there were an immediate threat to human life, it surely would.
CM is engaging in publicity hype. Whether or not there is anything behind the hype won't be known until the study is released.
