Making a phone call from an airplane that's in-flight is now legal in several European countries. Sounds cool, right? Well, maybe not. Clark would dread this coming to the Unites States, where it currently is illegal. The sky is the last bastion of silence a traveler can get!

The flight attendants' union is strident about making the current ban permanent in our nation. Yet surprisingly, Clark has not read anything in the European press to suggest that people are complaining about their fellow passengers talking on cell phones while in-flight. That would suggest that people are happy to hear their neighbors yapping away!

Interestingly, USA Today reports that domestic travelers are making calls using Skype while they're in the air. There's nothing specifically in the our ban to say that wifi calling services are illegal.
