    Mmmm true..... But if I slide it down over her feet and therefore take it off, I would be able spread her legs more to get deeper into her ;)

    From personal experience you can hike the skirt top (is hem the right word?) up above the hips and then throw the bottom bit up over that again allowing heaps of room for access and leg spreading

    Plus then if the plane lands right she can just pull it down for the whole evacuation thing

    I bet this is how it happened too. Ye never turned off ye're phones properly. Are ye happy now? ARE YE?

    My skills for apportioning blame in a crisis are legendary (even if it was my fault. The Blamestormer should be my new username).

    Mobile phones don't interfere with any instruments on planes.

    The reason they are still banned is 2 fold though

    1- The airline makes a fortune on their own phone system on some planes

    and

    2- There could be a malfunction on a variation of phone that could possibly mess something up. But as it would cost so much to test EVERY phone, every version of that phone and nowadays every version of andoid, windows or ios they err on the side of caution and have a blanket ban.

    But in fairness when you are at 30000ft+ up there is little or no chance of actually picking up a signal toactually make a call.

    although as you are plummeting your signal will improve

    20 mins over that particular area is more than enough to make a successful emergency landing at a well equipped airport.

    Stick in some earphones playing some epic music, briefly look back on my life and bid farewell to the whole rotten lot of it !!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,033 ✭✭✭mauzo


    In all honesty, Id blare music, eyes closed, rock back and forth and pray!

    Thats what I do whenever I fly ( I wish I was joking )

    Given the circumstances the terrified passengers on the doomed airplane would be in, I think cyanide would a much better bet than valium.

    The cabin crew could hand out the cyanide pills to the passengers whilst wearing V is for Vendetta masks.

    The captain could announce:

    "Ladies and gentlemen, have a nice death"

    I travel with a 2 year old so not always an option.

    Last year my parents were on the plane with us so i took a tablet the doctor gave me, and it did absolutely nothing.

    This year Ill be flying there and back just me and my son. Thats if I actually manage to get onto the death trap!

    I love flying because its one of the few times in life where you can relinquish all control to someone who is competent in what they are doing.

    Its crossing the zebra crossing at the far side is what scares me because I'm not as confident in my own ability to keep myself alive as I am of the pilots. Pilots will do a better job of flying planes than I can do of wiping my own arse. Flying is one of the safer parts of life.

    There are many who would disagree with you if they were alive.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,249 ✭✭✭Scioch

    There is probably many people who if alive would warn us of the dangers of pencils too. People die in all manner of ways but dying in plane crashes isnt up there on the list of those you need to worry about.

    Unfortunately I do and as a result I won't get to see the world. Couldn't even get on the plane the last time.

    Dont envy you on that one, I was nervous on my first flight but only because I didnt know what to expect. Once things were under way I realised it was no more scary than a bus just a hell of a lot cooler.

    Thats why the plane is cooler, but its the same thing really. Sitting there trying to occupy yourself until ya get where your going.
