Funny, I don't remember seeing a phone in the flight deck.

Well, that probably depends on the airline/aircraft, is sure possible to
have it installed as an option.
Nah. Nobody dos that on airliners. We have several methods of geting
messages to/from already, primarily ACARS.
Several Business aircraft have them, mostly Iridium/Sat phone.
I doubt anyone has them n the cockpit, though.

Well, cannot say about other aircraft, but all Global Express have a
Iridium/Sat phone in the cockpit, is installed in the aft part of the
center pedestal, it is standard equipment and has a separate number from
the ones in the cabin.- Hide quoted text -
Oh, OK, news to me! I stand corrected.
We're stil relying on ACARS.
Stil, a sat phone is hardly gonna get a call from sp[rint.
