Linedance posted:That one got the worst of it. Remember to keep your seatbelt fastened at all times! Flying eastbound over the pond today my heart sank when the cabin crew stowed their poo poo and strapped in, then I got a lot of attitude from my fellow passenger because I refused to get out my seat and made her step over to go pee (she got yelled back down). Thankfully it only lasted about half an hour. I'm a pretty white-knuckle flyer at the best of times and this is pretty much my worst nightmare even though I know it's a scenario with a perfectly safe outcome. I feel like I'm overdue this to happen, the number of miles I've flown.

CarForumPoster posted:Yea by reset you mean flip breakers cause "we saw a guy do it once on the ground" ...https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/circuit-board-solder-crack-cited-in-indonesia-airasi-419593/ People absolutely love to bring all sorts of crypto-racist "cultural factors" poo poo up whenever an asian airline has an accident, but I always find it funny when you point out that the pilot who caused this accident was also French.

Finger Prince posted:I'm not discounting people bringing up crypto-racist bullshit up for the sake of being crypto-racist, but crew resource management (code for crypto-racism) and cultural factors are absolutely a factor in many historically significant airline crashes. But you don't have to take my word for it, just ask Captain Sum Ting Wong. I actually don't dispute that. The point was if you're actually going to do the whole cultural factors thing, it's actually interesting that a deeply post industrial society is producing pilots that are causing accidents that're happening due to human-automation malfunctions. The Langeweische article on af447 is really good on that.
