Attaching isn't the problem.
The FAA and other international air authorities specifically disallow
any transmitting of receiving. The only way you'll get this is by
disabling the hardware itself.

AFAIK we have code in the tree which powers down all devices which aren't attached. I'm not sure if this code needs to be enabled with a tunable/sysctl, or if it is enabled by default.

Bye,
