Now that Boeing hired their own armed private air marshals, everyone claps, or they might meet dispatch. /s
“I’m hearing a whole lot of whistles blowing in this section of the aircraft…”

A good landing is one you walk away from.
A great landing is one where you can still use the airplane afterwards.
Look at Mr. Fancy flight pants over here with his high demands!
We now call that an Air Bus.
gunshots
all planes land. it’s the speed of the descent that matters.
I think even if it hits and explodes, as long as it’s on land and not water that qualifies.

Eh, I’d still call it a win by Boeing’s standards
Oh man… I want to say yes, but then what happens if the plane needs to do an emergency water landing afterwards… or would that be an emergency watering??? I can’t handle this stress!!!

So what you’re saying is, I should exclusively fly on Boeing planes?

I mean, if it’s gonna happen, what better way than on a giant tube full of screaming people freaking out for the last few moments of my life?
Good question. It’s a little unclear until the group figures out what the mysteries numbers are for, and why the crazy old man can suddenly walk again.

Yep. I also never finished it. It got incoherent, and I heard it didn’t really get better at the end.

I was recently on a flight where the first landing attempt was aborted due to low visibility and we looped around (the entire Metro area) to try again. After the second attempt succeeded there was indeed clapping.
I thought only polish people do this. Although to be fair I’ve only been flying with other poles.
It seems to be an Eastern Europe thing for sure, maybe ex-communist countries?
Possibly? It definitely comes from a very different time. I always thought of this as a kind of national embarassement but now I learn it’s not just a polish thing.
I’ve noticed that recently when older poles try to start a clap most younger ones scoff at them and roll their eyes and it fizzles out very quickly

Now this a real meme lol
Don’t call it cringe if you haven’t landed on Palermo airport on a small jetplane yet. It’s what I think a rocket launch should feel like.
kayak and turkish airlines now show which plane is assigned to the flight. I avoid buying tickets for Boeing flights.

If you are flying on 737 Max is good clap your hands while you still have them
Everyone claps in my country on landing. Is it that uncommon?
