Abstract: A device for air-to-ground communication between an aircraft and a ground station, said aircraft and said ground station each having antennas for directional radio data transmission. The data transmission is performed in a frequency band from 60 GHz to 90 GHz and the antenna of the ground station transmits and receives data exclusively in a range of angles ? of at least 5 degrees in the upward direction relative to the horizontal plane.

Abstract: A passenger seat including a holding device for a media reproducing apparatus, includes a base holding fixture attached to a backrest of said passenger seat, at least one adapter adapted to be detachably connected with said base holding fixture, said adapter being configured for holding said media reproducing apparatus at said base holding fixture, a standardized electronic interface to the power supply of said media reproducing apparatus, and a protective shutter fixedly connected with said backrest. The protective shutter is adapted to be moved from an open position in which access to said adapter and said media reproducing apparatus is allowed, into a closed position in which said media reproducing apparatus and said adapter are completely covered by said protective shutter. The protective shutter is of break-proof configuration and made at least partially from a translucent material such that a screen is visible through said protective shutter in the closed position.

Abstract: To increase the safety of a passenger in a means of transport and to better protect the passenger from an in-seat screen, wherein a folding table and at least one in-seat screen arranged above the folding table are provided in front of the passenger, and the folding table has a first folded position when the folding table is not in use and a second folded position for using the table which is pivoted with respect to the first folded position through approximately 90°, the method is characterized in that at least a portion of the folding table can be moved in front of the in-seat screen in order to protect the passenger from the screen. A corresponding arrangement is also provided.
