First of all, it is spelled hangAr.

he did not say to use the cell phone in flight, he said digging for his keys
he'll see the note with the reminder to use his cell to CANCEL his flight
plan, one can ASSUME that this means if he needs car keys he is on the
ground

and old analog cell phones had that problem...
come on up to the digital age.. no problem with multiple cell towers..

Second of all, simply put your car keys (and cell phone) in a Ziploc
bag
with a 3x5 card inside saying "close your flight plan". The first
thing
a person does usually when done putting away the plane is drive home
and/or call family.



Does this mean I have to take the plane key off my car key ring? No way
the phone goes in the bag, it gets plugged into the intercom so I can
use it during the flight.

if you are IFR and complete an IFR approach to a "towered" filed, when the
tower is open, the TOWER automatically cancels your IFR when you taxi clear
of the runway

I don't know why Mr. Tomblin thought that, but my 'friend' simply
forgot.


Mr. Tomblin said he files IFR because somebody else closes the flight plan
that way, it was you that wrote; "Hah! You would think so, ..."

If you are IFR and complete an IFR approach to a "towered" filed, when the
tower is open, the tower does nothing with regard to your IFR when you taxi
clear of the runway.

Mr. Tomblin said he files IFR because somebody else closes the flight plan
that way. Most fields do not have control towers.

Brother Natalie has posted numerous times that the FCC only cares
about the AMPS service. For the FAA and digital services, it's up to
the PIC to determine whether the phone interferes with the aircraft's
nav equipment.

The ones I fly IFR to almost all do. And when I'm flying into
podunk-ville, so far the approach controller giving me a phone number is
sufficient memory prod that I haven't failed to call on my cell phone
while taxing to the tie downs.

In other words, your statement is not correct in all cases, which makes it
an incorrect statement.
