I've always questioned the whole "calls from the planes" part of the stories from that day. I didn't think cell phones worked when up in the air on jets, at least not back in 2001. Can anyone provide a reasonable explanation of how it could have been possible back then?

Supposedly the bulk of UA93’s calls were made on the Airfones that were on planes back then. I used one a long time ago and it was a bit of a process. Only three or four of the calls from the flight were supposedly cell calls.
I forgot about the "air phones" they used to have.
