This is why the cockpit has a door. If they didn’t have a door, the pilots would be fucking with the passengers all the time with pranks like this.
If you fly in remote enough areas (outside of the post-9/11 security perimeter), the planes are still open to the cockpit. Sometimes it feels like I’m flying the plane from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom with the chicken in the cabin with me. The pilots are indeed often hilarious.
Losing contact lenses is a weird old meme since modern ones rarely seem to fall out. It was more of an issue with the old hard contacts.
“joke” aside
i thought you can’t become a real pilot with bad eyesight. thats why they also retire extremely early.
this might be specific to lufthansa and or germany, outdated or … plane wrong
Is that really irony or coincidence? I guess one would hope/expect the “eyes of the plane” as pilots are in good shape, so a bit eyeronic, but seems like a Meredith Brooks-type usage.
I mean, passenger planes mostly run on auto pilot now. Pilots are kinda more along for the ride to make sure it goes smooth lol.
