Question: 1 / 550

What is one exception to the restrictions on portable electronics during flight?

Cell phones

Tablets

Voice recorders

The correct choice regarding exceptions to the restrictions on portable electronics during flight is voice recorders. In many instances, voice recorders are specifically allowed to be used during flight when set to airplane mode or turned off, as they do not emit wireless signals that could interfere with the aircraft’s communication and navigational systems.

Portable electronics such as cell phones, tablets, and smartwatches typically have capabilities that involve active wireless communication, which can potentially disrupt aircraft systems during critical phases of flight, hence their use is generally restricted. However, voice recorders are often viewed as low-risk due to their limited functionality and lack of wireless transmission when not in active use. This makes them an exception to the general rules governing portable electronic devices on board an aircraft.
