Abstract
A method comprises: determining if a personal computing system in a vehicle is authentic using a radio system in the vehicle, where the radio system is configured (a) to communicate with at least one ground system and (b) to be coupled to a vehicle system; if the personal computing system is authenticated, creating a link between the personal computing system and the radio system; and at least one of: restricting data routing to and from at least one of: (a) vehicle system type(s), and (b) application program(s) of at least one of the vehicle system and the personal computing system; restricting data type(s) transmitted between the personal computing system and the vehicle system; and routing data between the personal computing system, and at least one of (a) at least one ground system not through a communications management system and (b) the vehicle system.
