Reception of radiosignals inside a Faradaycage is limited to frequencies
that are smaller then the holes in the cage.

Any explanation for this?

FM radio generally operates at longer range than AM radio, however it's
limited to line-of-sight. However, when you're 40,000 feet up you can
"see"
a lot of transmitters hence the FM signals.
