FROM SAT LAWYER:
>> The CFR that permits its use is permitted on the back of the vest in case you need to educate a flight attendant. Moreover, the manufacturer will give you a $50 refund check if a flight attendant/airline refuses to permit its use. Finally, while it is not technically permitted for use during takeoff and landing, fat chance of that prohibition being enforced on most flights with the flight attendants generally not in the line of sight when they strap themselves into their jump seats. <<
I have to agree with basejumper. This would be like saying stealing from Macy's is technically not permitted, but unlikely the sales clerk will see you if they are at the register ringing up customer's purchases.
The FAR states that the device in question is NOT permitted during taxi, take off, or landing. To even insinuate that they should try and "get away with it" is irresponsible and BAD advice.
