If a picocell on board an airplane receives an E911
call, it shouldn't route it to any PSAP. The first 
responders in this situation are the flight attendants 
so it should ring the flight attendant's phone.

By the way, if GPS works in the air for small aircraft
pilots, then why wouldn't it work for cellphones? The
last known fix should be 100% up to date and 100% useless.
