I have used mine on the last 4 flights I was on. It depends on the airline, as well as the captain. The captain of the plane has the authority to say no and remove you from the flight.<br><br>My father got in serious trouble for simply taking a photograph of my mother on a flight and it got ugly. Simple advice he gave me afterwards is if they say no, do not argue. You lose a lot of your rights while on a plane :)<br>

While on a recent Continental flight, I checked their in-flight magazine and saw that GPS receivers were allowed above 10,000 feet. So when we got to that altitude, I pulled mine out. Shortly afterward the flight attend told me, "no," and I shut it down but pointed out it was supposed to be allowed. He consulted the magazine, apologized, and let me use it, saying that this was a recent change that had not flowed to him yet.<br>
<br>If this is true, it's good of Continental to make that change. I like knowing what the name of the lake or feature is that I'm passing over and how much longer it will be until we get there, etc.<br><br>Brad, 1/2 of Team Nine Lives<br>
