Why do we have to switch mobile phones off on board of planes and is it OK if we don't?

In the United States, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) bans the use of cell phones on airplanes because of worries that calls could interfere with a plane's navigation system. So, if you want the navigation system of the plane that your on to work properly to get you there on time, I advise highly to keep it off. One person in reality isn't bad if you don't get caught, but who else would sneak a call too. So before anyone blames the pilot for being off course, they better see who's on a cell phone. I sent you a website that you can read for more infomation.

The alerts would intrude with the avionic kit like the VOR and stuff. notwithstanding avionic kit in the present day might want to be so technologically stepped ahead and would't be interfered by technique of a cellular telephone, the airways ask you to exhibit off your telephone merely as a precaution. they actually did a attempt in this on the coach mythbusters, the position they used a telephone correct contained in the cockpit next to the avionics kit, and not in any respect some thing befell to the avionics.
