FAA could allow electronic devices to be used during takeoff and landing

[mhm]

The FAA could be the first aviation authority to allow for the return of tablets and e-readers to aeroplanes during takeoff and landing.

At the moment, pretty much every carrier asks you to switch off every electronic device you have on board while the plane is on the ground. For some, even aeroplane mode isn't enough, as they ask you keep your smartphone turned off during the entirety of the flight.

Tablets and e-readers however could finally make a triumphant return to the hands of bored passengers waiting for planes to take off.
