Fact is that there were no faked calls and this is just another thread OP that has been debunked on here and in the mainstream (meaning normal everyday people not CNN or FOXnews) society.
FBI interview notes and records obtained through FOIA. It covers some of the calls made from Airfones (and who received them) that day including Barbara Olson.

Some highlights.....
For all the bashing done to Ted Olson by truthers....on the afternooon of 9/11 he told the FBI...
"I want documentation"
"Show me evidence"
"Im not going to accept any evidence"
Make up your mind.

You are prattling on about DRG as if he is some authority.

You are prattling on about DRG as if he is some authority. Your title to this thread is "Phone Calls from the 9/11 Airliners, Faked!" In addition, you posted your tripe about Dewdney and his "experiments" about cell phones....when the majority of the calls made on 9/11 came from the seat back Airfones.
Now, if you had bothered to go through the links I posted, you would find the documentation of the Airfone calls, including those made by Barbara Olson to her husband's office. You would also find that SOMEBODY (listed as "unknown" in the Mous trial) on Flight 77 made calls to the Solictor General's (Ted Olson) office. Gee I wonder who that might have been.

because the author of the article said so makes it true? Please provide more evidence.
However, the evidence from the Moussaoui trial ruled out this possibility. In its report on AA 77, it listed one attempted call from Barbara Olson, which was "unconnected" and hence lasted "0 seconds."
Here is more links
pilotsfor911truth.org...
According to the new released collection of US Courts (regarding the Moussaoui material)
at coop.vaed.uscourts.gov...
the phone call of Barbara Olson, officially recorded from AA77 (a flight which did not exist in the BTS database) was not connected!
Since US Gov didn't provide any other new material which proves the negative,
this supports a conclusion, that this phone call never took place, because there is only this one
and no other record.
(Officially she did only one phone call)
Could Barbara Olson Have Made Those Calls?

I gave you the records. If you truly care about the truth (as so many of you claim) you will actually learn what the records mean. Certain posters complain that 911myths is biased, at least that website has gone to the trouble of getting the actual documents under FOIA and put them online. As opposed to Killtown's chart saying...Oh so and so made a cell phone call.
Better yet, this link has links to even more documentation about the airfone calls that day (amongst documents on dozens of different aspects of 9/11). Although, I seriously doubt any of you will have the guts to go there with an open mind and look at any of it, it might wreck havoc on your belief systems.

Like I said, if you truly care about the truth, you will go, page for page, through those links. The answers are there.

First of all, not sure who's asking the question there, but he/she keeps asking about "seatback satellite phones". It appears to be somewhat pestering in tone, as well, repeated several times. But, never mind that part, my point here is the questioner is already making a false assumption and exhibits poor knowledge of the type of Airphone technology in use at that time. Whether that was intentionally misleading, in order to elicit the response he/she wanted, or a completely innocent mistake is going to be difficult to determine.
By referring to the onboard phones as "satellite" phones, the questioner is asking a non-sequitor question. The innovation that the Airphones provided, when introduced in domestic US airspace, did NOT rely on satellite links to operate. They were linked to a system of ground-based stations.
This is some very well reasurched and documented details, that exposes the lies from the FBI about the onboard phone calls from these hijact planes.
Please read the entire thread before responding. I will be *expecting sources* by those who are debunking David Ray Griffin work.
Please treat everyone with repect even if you disagree with them.
It is pretty much proven those phone calls were faked.
Anytime you use DRG or RB, we can automatically forget the rest of your post. You say you "googled" facts....I gave you links to the actual documents from GTE, the airlines, FBI etc in regards to the calls.
Swampy, your sources don’t tell the reader how GTE phones work or how they are able to do the most unthinkable and that is how GTE phone are able to get or hold a phone connection at 25,000 to 30,000 feet traveling at a speed of 325 knots.
The facts is, there is no known report that claim GTE phones can make any call from that altitude or even get a connection.
In your game of twist, lets stick to the given facts.
OAK BROOK, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 29, 1999--When the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at a record-breaking high of over 10,000 today, passengers aboard airlines equipped with GTE Airfone didn't miss the historic moment, because they now can monitor the Dow on their Airfone handset.
Using enhanced digital technology, GTE transmits Dow Jones Industrial Average updates to airline passenger seats. The information, provided by Bloomberg, LP and updated every fifteen minutes, appears on the Airfone handset and is free.
