Verizon And AT&T Reach Deal With The FAA On 5G

The video discusses the interference of new 5G services by AT&T and Verizon with airline radio altimeters, crucial for precision landings. This issue mainly affects smaller regional jets, causing flight disruptions in certain airports. An agreement with the FAA has delayed the full 5G rollout near airports until July 2023, allowing airlines time to upgrade planes. However, airlines are concerned about the costs and feasibility of meeting this deadline. Despite warnings of potential disruptions, the impact on passengers has been minimal. The FAA plans to work with carriers to ensure safe coexistence of 5G and aviation.
