Not bad
Was on a flight a few months ago, and when we landed, no clapping - dead quiet. Out of the silence, I heard a, what must have been, six year old shout really loudly “WE DID IT!”.
I learned clapping was unappreciated the day of this week’s plane crash, that I was scheduled to land at same airport that day. My reply is that us normal people are just happy to land upright. We all clapped when landing the next day.
Standing ovation if you’re on a Boeing plane.
Booing when a Boeing plane lands safely because you updated your life insurance for nothing.
… clap if the plane lands
ALL planes land. The question is, whether or not there is someone left to clap afterwards.
If an American plane crashes in the woods and no one survives to clap does it make a sound?
Ok, that is pretty funny, but no. Still not acceptable.
I will still judge you.
Even from your living room.
Canada too, apparently
Also… Why would you get into one of those things? In a plane, you are the crumple zone.
For business just teleconference.
For personal, I can tell you that photos tell the story pretty well. There are people there already taking the photos. You don’t need a selfie there, just use the Gimp. For everything else in the modern world, it all looks pretty close to how it looks at home.
There’s no need to travel. Specially within your country. Its not like high speed trains are any safer. And cars…what’s next the entire planet is a big ass road?
Sounds like someone leads a boring and meaningless life.
You might change your mind one day about what I’ve said. I speak from experience as a traveler.
Let me guess, you were killed in a plane crash
Nope. I wanna keep it that way. I’ve flown on 737’s where the engines keep making little sparks the entire flight… As an ex solarturbines engineer I can tell you that that’s not normal and can lead to flying blades which can slice right thru the plane body and you like butter. They have a cover around the blades that is supposed to stop them. But I don’t trust it since I haven’t seen the test videos at vehicle speed. But that’s just one minor issue. I’ve been on a plane landing in Bohol the Philippines where some “minor” damage was promptly patched using duct tape.
My job used to take me places. That’s probably the only reason to travel… For science, education, or for a job. Not for going to another sushi place or to see a building or a pyramid. The worse travel is for nothing… Carnival cruise ships. And also for things… China made stuff you buy from temu.
No it isn’t.
I wonder who doesn’t like your comment. This clapping shit is so cringe. Maybe under some very difficult conditions. But hey, they’re trained for it? And I’m pretty sure they do it for themselves too lol
I think it’s a joke.
No idea, just shit your pants move on lol there doesn’t need to be a movie moment
