Major airlines and distribution lines in the US have made a final plea for banning the powerful 5G internet network near airports.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Some of the largest companies have sounded the alarm about the potentially “devastating” effects of the 5G network near airports, saying the technology will cause flight and distribution network closures.<\/p>\n
‘Airlines for America’ – representative group of airlines<\/a> JetBlue, American Airlines, Southwest, United, Delta, UPS, FedEx, among others – published a paper<\/a> on Monday where he said the 5G C-Band service will strongly impact flight operations and could create a “Economic catastrophe completely avoidable.”<\/em><\/p>\n “<\/em>“Most travel and transportation will not be able to fly,” the statement said, adding that 1,100 flights a day or about 100,000 passengers would be affected by delays or cancellations.<\/p>\n Although the US Federal Aviation Administration has acknowledged that the network will interfere with the radio altimeters used by aircraft, which are used by pilots to reduce visibility Agency<\/a> said it has allowed commercial aircraft to fly in the presence of 5G network C-Band towers. Permission was granted a few days before their activation on January 19 despite delays for security reasons.<\/p>\n But the airlines stressed that interferences with altimeters are serious as they “provide critical information about navigation systems in modern aircraft”, which means that large masses of flights may remain unresolved if the issue remains in these conditions.<\/p>\n The companies suggested that the administration stop building 5G towers closer than two miles from airports until regulators determine how to achieve security without catastrophic unrest.<\/p>\n AT&T’s Verizon is leading the way in expanding the 5G C-Band line in the US after receiving a $ 80 billion technology installation contract last year. Some companies have agreed to create radiation protection zones around airports, but airlines are not happy as they say the measure is insufficient.<\/p>\n \n<\/p>\n top channel
