| Mar 29, 2016 at 9:21 | comment | added | hiergiltdiestfu | Did you.. did you really call this a "relatively short answer"? EDIT: Yeah, you did. I checked. It took me a couple minutes of scrolling tho. xD | |

Actually things are common knowledge, but if you want to clarify or have and external confirmation I'm interested in sources discussing transmit performance through an aircraft cabin, mostly. I get the theory, and everything you said agrees with what I know, but I haven't been able to find any articles or other information actually stating whether or not your PLB signal would ever reach a satellite from inside an airliner cabin.
