Sounds to me like the solution is clarifying the FARs so a pic in cruise with your camera on your airplane mode phone is explicitly authorized.

Or, we can all bring along cameras obscura (not sure if that's the plural lol) - totally legal, and good for some fun with TSA too.

the amount of attention this guy is getting, there is a real chance the 2016 issue of the FAR's might deal with this subject

Don't the feds deal with this already? As in; sterile cockpit and now PED use in the cockpit? What will they do, append the FAR with #seriously?

I'm baffled that those who post on social media (including APC) think there is such a thing as privacy.

Yup. Clearly a hack reporter with no substance. Unfortunately, pilots are the ones giving him attention.

Cmon man,

Have you ever used the restroom while in cruise?

You think the FA is "monitoring" anything? Lets not make this something it isn't.

Yes, because it's a terrible thing to enjoy your job, or aviation in general.

Why are you a tool if you think being a pilot is cool?
