Danke, do something

An uneventful United Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Washington, D.C., changed when a ceiling panel fell on a passenger while the plane landed on Wednesday, video of the incident shows.
The rough landing into Dulles International Airport caused the loose ceiling panel to fall. One passenger told FOX5 that the “top came off” and was “falling on people.”’
The same witness told the news station that the plane was “braking hard” and the flight attendants were unable to help the passenger remove the panel until the plane slowed.
Luckily, no one was injured during the incident.

It wasn’t the Captain’s fault. It wasn’t the First Officer’s fault. It was the Asphalt.

‘I thought we were done for’ - passengers on Ryanair flight describe emergency landing

https://www.irishtimes.com/news/ire...r-flight-describe-emergency-landing-1.3565435

A number of passengers on board the Ryanair flight from Dublin to Croatia that had to make an emergency landing in Germany have described their experiences.

Dozens of passengers were taken to hospital complaining of headache and earache and suffering from nausea after the plane depressurised rapidly.

Sarah McGarry, from Ratoath in Co Meath, spoke to The Irish Times from the basement at Frankfurt Hahn airport where she had been staying overnight.

She explained the moment when the cabin started losing pressure:

“We get on the plane, we’re flying and next of all the oxygen mask comes down, we’re left in darkness for 15 minutes, there’s no reassurance just people shouting ‘emergency, emergency’.

“There was a newborn baby and children on the flight, people are screaming and we don’t know what’s going on for 15 minutes . . . Then finally we’re told that we’re going to Germany.”

Another passenger, who did not want to be named, said “it was really scary, there were three to four minutes (that felt like an hour) when the plane was falling fast and I thought we were done for”.

The passenger, who was travelling with three young children, said people were bleeding from the eardrums when they landed.

Ms McGarry, who was travelling to Zadar for a holiday with her boyfriend, said her eardrum burst during the descent. However, she did not go to the hospital in an ambulance because she was not told if she would be back in time to catch the rescheduled flight, which was due to take off at 9.30am on Saturday.

“My eardrum burst when the plane dropped and I was told I’d have to travel 70km to be seen at the hospital because that there were no doctors there available. I wasn’t reassured if I went that I’d be able to get back on the flight.

“I chose not to go because if I travelled to the hospital I wasn’t reassured that I’d get back on the same flight and with the same passengers.”

Atlanta airport reveals it spent nearly $4M on dog bathrooms

1531504159717.jpg



Officials for the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport recently revealed that its seven new Service Animal Relief Areas, which were installed last year, cost a total of $3.9 million.

The airport installed the seven dog bathrooms, one in each concourse, last summer, but the cost to construct them was made public only this week, Fox 5 Atlanta reports.

Airport administrators credited the high price tag to the complexities of building inside a 24-hour facility, which restricts construction to the overnight hours. Additionally, they said existing facilities had to be torn down in order to make room for the new dog bathrooms.

The Federal Department of Transportation mandates large airports have Service Animal Relief Areas.

“In order for ATL to be in compliance with federal ADA (American with Disabilities Act) standards, these relief areas had to be built,” a spokesperson for the airport told Fox News.

“The total cost for building the seven relief areas was absorbed through airport funding, not taxpayer dollars, in the amount of $3.9 million, which is reimbursable through PFCs (Passenger Facility Charges).”

Oh, so all those fees and charges that are tacked on to every plane ticket I buy are optional then?

Passengers complain of bedbugs on flights out of Newark airport

NEW JERSEY (FOX5NY) - Passengers on flights from Newark Liberty International Airport to India are complaining about bed bug infested seats.

In one case this week a family complained their infant was covered in bites and bleeding by the time the 17-hour flight landed in Mumbia.

Pravin Tonsekar tweeted Air India photos of his seat with apparent bed bugs on them.

Air India replied with a comment that it is: "sorry to hear this. Sharing the details with our maintenance team for corrective measures in this regard."

Another passenger tweeted to the airline that his family few out of Newark on July 18 and his wife and three children were covered in bed ug bites all over their body. He asked, "Is this what we paid $10,000 for???"

He says a doctor has prescribed 10 days of medicine on what was supposed to be a vacation for them. Air India also apologized to him in a reply.

A report out of India claims the national owned airline received other complaints about the bugs in business class seats earlier this week.

I do not even think Dankes Airline reimburses people who get bed bug bites on board ( pretty common )
 
When I use to fly in and out of Delhi, we always locked the bathroom closest to the cockpit. The flight attendants would always ask us if they could use that toilet too.
 
Keeping it classy ladies...keeping it classy.

I watched a documentary last night on the great ocean liner races of the 1930s, granted, these were very wealthy people, but even the third class folks were dressed and looked sharp.



My god, how we have all devolved...nothing more than shit flinging gibbons, hooting at each other. And even while publicly humiliating and debasing herself, she can't put that fucking cell phone down for 30 seconds. (Maybe she was calling for bail money. - AF)

I mean, I am no fashion plate, but c'mon.

Nice going ladies, you wanted to be just like men...you got the crude and filthy right...just not anything else.

THIS is the shocking moment a female passenger squats and pees in the galley of a Wizz Air (No, that's not a gag - AF) flight from the UK to Poland.

The woman is seen relieving herself on the flight from London Luton to Warsaw while complaining that she was not allowed to use the toilet during take off.

The woman is seen squatting against a wall while urinating in the galley

According to reports, the plane was fuelling up and passengers were temporarily forbidden from using the loo.

In the shocking footage, the young woman is seen squatting against a wall while chatting with a friend on the phone.

By her feet are several paper towels and a large pool of urine.

With her knickers and leggings pulled down to her knees, she tells the person on the phone: "You have to help me before the flight takes off. I am peeing in the aircraft.

The passenger was speaking to someone on the phone while she urinated

"I asked them (cabin crew) if I could use the toilet, but they said I could not right now. So I am peeing in the galley. Right in front of them."

The brazen woman adds: "The police are coming because it is my fault. All my fault."

Cabin crew members can be heard berating the woman, with one saying: "Are you being serious? That is disgusting. You are a grown woman."

The passenger replies: "Yeh, I know. I did ask."

Staff members can be heard shouting at the woman as she pees all over the cabin floor

The man then adds: "So you think it is okay to piss on the floor?"

There is still no confirmation as to what happened to woman after the police arrived.

Wizz Air is a Hungarian low-cost airline that serves many cities across Europe as well as some destinations in North Africa and the Middle East.

A spokesperson for the airline said: “On Wizz Air flight W6 1309 from Warsaw to London Luton a passenger was reported to become unruly during landing, ignoring crew instructions.

“The cabin crew handled the situation as they are trained to do and reported the passenger’s behaviour to the respective authorities.

“After disembarkation, while waiting for the authorities’ arrival, the situation escalated.

“The aircraft was refuelling and therefore the lavatories could not be used, as is standard procedure.

“As a result, the passenger’s behaviour became aggressive and offensive towards the crew.

“Safety is our top priority and the airline has zero tolerance for abusive behaviour. This is now a matter for the police.”

It's disgusting. We're regulars at a few places and the employees and a few other regulars know us. I find it sad that, on more than one occasion, I've been asked why get so dressed up. I was wearing jeans, ffs. Yes, I also had on a nice top (ironed) and was well accessorized but I would never consider jeans dressed up. I've gotten to the point where I won't leave unless Mr A and the boys have on collared shirts. Golf shirts are fine but they've tried to leave in ratty t-shirts. Last year they thought they were hilarious when, after I gave them a particularly harsh tongue lashing about having pride in yourself, they all put on their tuxedo t-shirts.:rolleyes:

Anyway, it's about having pride in yourself. You don't have to dress up. A little grooming, a iron (or even a little handheld steamer) go long, long way. Especially considering that most people look like hobos when they leave the house.



Fucking animal. I would've pushed her over into her own piss.

A China Airlines Boeing 747-400 freighter, registration B-18711 performing freight flight CI-5148 from Anchorage,AK to Chicago O'Hare,IL (USA) with 4 people on board, was on an ILS approach to runway 10L at 09:57L (14:57Z) when the crew advised they were going around having had a last minute deviation on the runway. The crew of another aircraft on the ground advised the aircraft had gone off the runway, a third crew advised tower the runway needed to be inspected. A runway inspection found debris on the runway, the windsock (WDI) to the left (north) of the runway between taxiway DD and N1 was found damaged, the runway was closed for about 50 minutes. In the meantime B-18711 positioned for another approach and landed safely on runway 09R about 25 minutes after the go around.

The FAA reported the flight touched down in the grass, went around and returned to land. None of the 4 occupants was injured, the aircraft sustained minor damage.

The occurrence aircraft is still on the ground in Chicago about 27 hours after landing.

"A Convair 340, registration ZS-BRV, crashed and broke up during a test flight out of Wonderboom Airport, reportedly carrying about 20 occupants.
During takeoff from Wonderboom Airport, the aircraft was seen trailing smoke from the no.1 engine. Eyewitnesses also reported observing flames. The pilot flew a right hand circuit at low altitude for an emergency landing back on runway 29. Having turned to base leg the aircraft went down about 6 km to the east of the airport. It impacted a shed and broke up. The flight engineer sustained fatal injuries.
The aircraft had been donated by the owner, Rovos Air, to the Dutch aviation theme park Aviodrome. It carried the colour scheme of the former Dutch airline Martin's Air Charter (later renamed Martinair) and was to be ferried to the Netherlands with an expected arrival at Lelystad Airport on July 23, 2018. The accident flight was the final test flight before the planned start of the ferry flight on July 12."


They should have been able to fly on one engine...wonder what happened. Too early turn back before gaining altitude and airspeed?
