iPhone in a glider?

Well, it would seem tight quarters for manuvering a good shield inside a
fiberglass glider, and using the body of the glider for that would probably
be ineffective. A metal glider might limit downward signals to those that
diffract over the body into the glider, but that could also be hard to
control.

If you can manage to do it, though, I would bet that it would work.

I'll give it a try next time I fly. In the past, I've held the phone up
high in the cockpit so it good get a good view of the ground, which
worked well with my old analog/TDMA phone, but now that sounds like the
wrong thing to do.
