Original Note:
To the note above, aircraft primarily communicate with air traffic control via VHF with ranges of up to 200-300 miles at cruise altitude. Within that range an explosive could be triggered via VHF. Furthermore enorcement and adherence to radio device restrictions varies widely. https://www.pittspecials.com/articles/vhf_range.htm
