Not to mention two slight problems with this conspiracy theory. The first is that when the calls were made, it's likely the planes were flying at an altitude MUCH lower than 30,000 feet.
The other is that some of the passengers used the in-flight telephones on the seat-back in front of them. Surely those would operate at any altitude.
In any case, I'm not sure what grease_suck's point was. That none of this actually happened? What a strange idea. If this had all been an administration conspiracy, wouldn't they have "conspired" to make themselves look less incompetent?
