Received my first message from an airplane. Looking at it, there was a United Fight on it's way from Chicago to Cincinnati passing overhead when I got this.

Test, UA flight 808

Disrupting flights and violating FAA regulations is exactly what we don't want Meshtastic in the mainstream news for.

It's cellular that you're not allowed on airplane and that's the FCC, not FAA. And it's so cell towers don't get DDoS'd, not so airplanes don't fall out of the sky.

FAA has no regulations on this.
