The 5G/airline mess seems to come down to receivers that are not robust against adjacent channel users. It annoys me that just because the airplane industry cheaped up on their receivers, because there wasn’t an adjacent user in the band, they now cry foul because they will have to upgrade their receivers to deal with something they should have designed for in the first place.
