中国民航局宣布一件大事！飞机上将可以玩手机了！

The decision was based on the development of in-flight portable electronic devices and international research findings, Zhu told reporters.

朱涛告诉记者，民航总局基于飞行中便携式电子设备的演变以及国际研究的发现做出该决定。

Currently, Chinese aviation regulation allows passengers to use electronic devices like laptops or tablets on flights after take-off and before landing, but mobile phones must be turned off for safety reasons.

目前，中国航空法规允许乘客在飞机起飞后、落地前使用手提电脑或平板电脑等电子设备，但出于安全考虑，乘客必须关闭手机。

Electromagnetic interference to aircraft systems is a common argument offered for banning mobile phones (and other electronic devices) on planes. Theoretically, active radio transmitters such as mobile phones, walkie–talkies, portable computers or gaming devices may interfere with the aircraft. Non-transmitting electronic devices also emit electromagnetic radiation, although typically at a lower power level, and could also theoretically affect the aircraft electronics.

禁止在飞机上使用手机(以及其他电子设备)的一个普遍理由是，这些设备会对飞行系统产生电磁干扰。从理论上讲，活跃的无线电发射器，如手机、对讲机、手提电脑或游戏机都可能对飞机产生干扰。非无线电发射电子设备存在电磁辐射，虽然其功率水平通常较低，但在理论上也可能影响飞机的电子设备。

The British CAA report doesn't make any case at all against cell phones, other than it is probably best that the pilots do not use them in the cockpits, during critical modes of navigation (because the phones would then be so close to the navigation equipment).

关于手机，英国民航局的报告仅提到，在飞机导航处于关键模式时，飞行员最好不要在驾驶舱内使用手机，因为这样会使得手机过于接近导航设备。

An aviation safety database maintained by NASA shows a handful of incidents each year reported by pilots who suspected cell phones and other electronic devices had caused a problem during flight. Despite these reports, not a single air crash has been proven to be caused by the use of a cell phone onboard a plane.

而NASA维护的航空安全数据库显示，每年飞行员都会上报几起他们认为是手机或其他电子设备引发的飞行问题。然而，除了这些报告，没有一起空难被证实是在飞机上使用手机所引起的。

"The FAA did not consider changing the regulations regarding the use of cell phones for voice communications during flight because the issue is under the jurisdiction of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)."

“FAA并不考虑修改关于飞行过程中使用手机进行语音通信的规定，因为这一问题属于联邦通信委员会(FCC)的管辖范围。”

"Modern technologies can deliver mobile services in the air safely and reliably, and the time is right to review our outdated and restrictive rules."

“现代科技可以安全可靠地在空中提供移动服务，现在是时候审查我们过时的限制性规定了。”
