And despite the ban on cell phone use during flights, the researchers
discovered that on average one to four cell phone calls are made from every
commercial flight in the northeast United States.

Some are even made during critical flight times, such as the climb after
takeoff or the final approach.

This potentially self-destructive passenger behavior is reminiscent of
Robert A. Heinlein's SF novel The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress in which
people on Earth flock to the very site the people of Luna indicated
would be the target location where their catapult-asteroids would hit.
Some folks don't have good sense.
