Has there been anything thats made you go “Nope, I’m getting off/not getting on”.

We got on a plane from Austin to Atlanta and we were all on the plane and the pilot says "Hi everyone, fuel keeps leaking out of the wing every time I turn the engine on so just seeing if we can fix that"
I got up and went to get off but my bf pulled me back.

Very delayed flight back from Munich, the pilot says they’re having some issues with the plane software so they’re going to try a new beta version to see if that works. Very nearly walked off at that point.

It didn’t work, we had to get a new plane.

Pilot announces over the tannoy “I don’t wish to alarm anyone, and I understand this is most unprofessional, but thought everyone should know I had a very vivid dream that I crashed this plane last night. I mean, it was just a dream, but thought you should know!”

  • Everyone off! This guy is cocoloco
  • Everyone off! Dreams can come true
  • aww, thanks for letting us know mate, but lets get this baby airborne ya big bloody silly dreamer!

This is a funny (ie wrong) way of defining"statistically safer".

…and there was a big Focke coming up behind all guns blazing?

Honestly, is there another Ex Hex album coming?

Does a ride count if it was static, i.e. it just went up, to a height of around 30m then descended again?

#69

Yes?

I just mean that there will be fewer disasters overall, but if something does go wrong then nobody will be able to intervene and fly it manually.

Just like getting off the bus in Wales, if the pilot’s stood there as I get off I’ll give him a nod and a heartfelt “Cheers, Drive”.

Vote first, ask questions later, that’s my motto.

It’s pretty much a thing everywhere that doesn’t have a separate exit to the buses.

Mary Timony has just done a tour last month playing Helium songs. Not sure Ex Hex is and active band atm.
