Whats the point of wearing a watch?

The queues can be very long (> 1hr) often not worth the effort

Inconsistent quality

You mean Temu? If I was in charge, I would mandate all power banks be at less than full charge before boarding. Maximum 2 bars on battery level display.

Actually this makes more sense.....👍 There is no mention of a copilot seen arriving late all flustered and then entering the coughpit after departure time.. Also if one pilot is missing/late, would aircraft boarding be allowed to commence?

Do you know what the pilot actually said?. And separately what the cabin crew actually heard?. What if the pilot said "the windscreen is cracked and we are going down" . Cabin crew hears the words going down. It is not beyond the realms of possibilities that the cabin crew interpreted the...

Communication errors are actually quite common and actually reproducible in a simulator environment. Errors come from misunderstanding the message, sender assuming the receiver got the message and the receiver assuming they got the message and understood it.. Other factors that disrupt...

I would not go that far. Clearly they made a mistake interpreting what the pilots told them but I would like to know what the pilots said exactly before passing judgement. While not making a mistake is always better, I would rather Cabin crew err on the side of putting on lifejackets than not...

I rubber band a hand warmer against the phone when skiing in subzero temps

So long as ALW is not involved in the production, I could be interested...:D

I didnt say that other jurisdictions don't have regulatory standards regarding electronic equipment. Some of these including the AU regulatory tick is just a general regulatory certificate that (basically) tests for electrical safety, which is not the same as risk of LI-ion battery fires. I dont...

China already has on August 2025 It is a government "China Compulsory Certification" or CCC Certified items has the CCC mark Confiscation of non CCC certified power banks have apparently occurred in Chinese airports

Was the captain in the aircraft waiting for the copilot to arrive?

So I wonder then how would it be enforced?

Should have been done as pre-reading. I re-read AMSND on the SQ flight to LHR and picked up some segments that were not portrayed in the play.

perhaps the power banks will have to be removed from carryons and placed in its own tray for scanning??

Assume zero knowledge. When I was in London I went to the Globe to watch a rendition of Midsummer's Night Dream. I overheard someone complaining that it was not a musical...🤦
