JAKARTA - A pilot's iPhone fell from a moving plane. Then he was very surprised to find that the Apple phone was safe, intact! This is epic. While this type of AirDrop isn't recommended for the long-term health of the device, reports of falling from a great height and being submerged deep underwater for long periods of time, and staying safe, immediately made headlines.
Owners of this device, especially the last few generations of Apple, have seen the ever-increasing durability of the device.
The iPhone, like every other flagship phone, has been upgraded with stronger glass every few years. The iPhone 7 was the first to add water resistance and has gradually improved over the years.
In 2018, the iPhone XS received an update that increased its safe water depth to two meters, and the 2020 iPhone 12 can plunge up to six meters underwater and stay there for up to thirty minutes.
The iPhone 12 is also the first model to enjoy Ceramic Shield glass protection, a special formulation developed by Apple (with the help of Corning) that includes ceramic crystals and greatly increases drop resistance.
It's not clear which iPhone model the pilot dropped from a moving plane in Orlando Florida, but its incredible durability surprised some airport workers involved with runway restoration.
The pilot reported that the iPhone was to the right of the center line and ground crews were able to locate the phone and recover it. Air traffic control tower noted that it would be a great story for Apple if it still worked.
Apparently, the Apple phone that was dropped can still turn on and the follow-up question is 'how shattered is the screen?' Incredibly, the answer from the operations crew was that the iPhone was in perfect condition. Orlando ground crew exclaims 'There's no way an iPhone fell out of a plane at 50-60 miles per hour and didn't damage the screen,'
During this time they confessed that they had never heard of an iPhone falling more than four feet without breaking in two. The entire hilarious conversation was captured and shared on the VASAviation YouTube channel.

The pilot who dropped the iPhone referred to the 'satellite' when sharing his search, stating 'about a thousand feet down, just to the right of the centerline.' The iPhone doesn't have satellite technology, but the Find my Phone app can track an iPhone that's been lost, stolen, or dropped from an airplane.
Apple's Find My app can even provide GPS location or current cellular position if the phone is still getting one of those signals. Ground crews were also amazed by the accuracy of the reported locations.
This isn't the first time an iPhone has fallen in a rough landing. It was reported that the iPhone X fell over 11.000 feet and survived in August 2021, according to a Diamond Aviators forum post. When dropped in a rural area, it falls near a cell tower, which is very important to be able to find it again.
It's lucky that the phone landed in the field rather than on a hard surface considering the iPhone X doesn't come with a Ceramic Shield. The conclusion to this survival story is that Apple's iPhone is just as tough as any other phone. Maybe even more so because the highly advanced Find My Phone capabilities allow the device to be recovered quickly and undamaged.
