I have an iPhone. I'm currently set to Airplane mode, right now, and I'm on wifi.
I don't use cell data because there's no reception. However, there's plenty of wifi.

Have you ever tried? You can use WiFi while in airplane mode, but that isn’t T-Mobile. When you fly you pay $15-35 for access during the whole flight.

Actually it does. I’ll post a video showing it doing just that on my YouTube Channel. Airplane mode turns off all antenna reciept and transmission.
Because you specifically enabled it AFTER entering Airplane mode. If you turn it on Airplane mode and try to use wifi it will tell you "Turn off Airplane Mode or use Wifi to Acess Data"
Funny Ive gotten signal at 10k feet on the eastern shore of MD....now when I am at 2k feet over the plains of colorado or kansas I cant get shit for signal. All depends on where you live man. Also you know you arent supposed to be using your cell phone while in flight right?
That being said...this story is bullshit. Airplane mode disables most of the antennas. For at least Apple phones starting with IOS 8 something they leave the GPS antenna on. I believe it leas NFC antennas on as well.
It does turn off the cell, bt, and wifi SEND/RECV functionality.
So yeah they were bullshitting.
I'm a military pilot, we do what we want! haha jk

Due to many of you "liking" my previous post i was awarded a trophy called "I like it a lot". I would humbly like to thank all the fans, the academy, and my momma, Elvis, and sweet baby Jesus.
