being a former air traffic controller I can tell you that washington airspace is a roller coaster of flight routes designed to prevent overflying areas such as the white house and pentagon. I don't know if the said airliner was on or off this particular course.
airplanes do have cell phones, however, if I remember right, some of the victims family members said that a personal cellphone had been used to call them on the flight. Thats why I asked about wireless limitation. I DO know that electronics that use RF technology damage circuits in the cockpit so that would be telling somewhere.
very good question
Were you working as an atc in Iad or Dca? - Just curious.
I used to work in Iad.
