You're not allowed to use mobile phones on planes, the electromagntic radiation they emit affects the radar and communications within the plane.

that, my friend, is male cow excrement.
The frequency in which the phone works differs ratly from the one that planes use, and it takes special high tech equpment (which get outdated every decade) to jam a radar. Besides many airplane companies offer their own phone (maybe internet too?) service (which I believe is the reason why they don't want you to use your own phone)
