What a dick move
I wonder what’s the chance the was random. With all the planes that have made holding patterns over the years, I’m sure some look phallic by chance. Or maybe the tower usually makes sure not to accidentally draw that?
Usually they do a racetrack.
Yep. 90 degree turn, 90 degree turn, hold… 90 degree turn, 90 degree turn, hold… Repeat as long as necessary. From day 1 of flight training. It’s also standard when waiting your turn to land, maintaining altitude to keep different planes in their envelopes.
Circles run the risk of losing altitude and/or airspeed.Why do you lose altitude or airflow with a circle?
Simple, you lose energy and get disoriented when changing direction. When flying in a circle, you’re constantly changing direction and at an angle to the ground. So you are consistently being disoriented as well. So you’re constantly on the throttle or have to rethrottle up to gain altitude doesn’t make for constant holding pattern.
The NASCAR method.
Yupes.
My flight instructor just called it “a loop”.
Lol
“Guys…I…I think we just drew a dick in the sky!! I COULD FEEL IT!” - One astute passenger nobody believed
If they didn’t want pilots to draw dicks in the sky with multi-million dollar aircraft they wouldn’t make them so easy for pilots to draw.
High quality shit post
This also highlights where the pilot giggled.
I think He did it on purpose
The pilot is a human race mvp.
Dude should get that looked at by a doctor.
Deserves a raise.
hell yeah
What the fuck is a Lufthansa
not sure if you’re serious or not, lufthansa is germany’s main airline
Sweet, thanks man - I don’t live there so i wasn’t familiar
i think it’s one of the largest airlines in the world, their hub is Frankfurt iirc so they offer flights almost anywhere and if you connect it’s via Frankfurt
And they are a bag of dicks to work with too in my experience.
It’s the thing you wash yourself with in the shower
No, that’s a loofah. A Lufthansa is what Nena was singing about 99 of.
No, those are Luftballons. A Lufthansa is a kind of electric fire starter.
They’re all “air”-something in german.
No that’s a looftlighter. Lufthansa was the kid who got lost in the forest with his sister Luftgretel.
