Mobile Phone / Mobile Data Use in Ops Manual
Posted: Fri Feb 5 2016, 05:52
Does anyone have any experience amending ops manuals to incorporate the use of mobile phones or mobile devices by flight crew?
CASA requires pax to place items in flight mode in their Advice to Air Travellers (https://www.casa.gov.au/education/standard-page/when-can-you-use-your-mobile-phone) but the only other guidance I can find relates to use of mobile devices during refuelling "CASA EX66/14 - Exemption — use of mobile phones and other electronic devices when loading fuel (https://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/F2014L01049)
Obviously many many operators incorporate the inflight use of mobile telephones in their operation. I imagine that you need to show that you've taken into consideration any EM interference/EM compatibility issues, but how do you do that? Is there generic data that can be referenced?
Thanks in advance
