SILLY AIRLINE RULES EXPLAINED

Pilots speak up


1. "We don't make you stow your laptop because we're worried about electronic interference. I don't know about you, but I don't want to get hit in the head by a Mac Book going 200 miles per hour"






2. "People don't understand why they can't use their cell phones. Well, what can happen is 12 people will decide to call someone just before landing, and I can get a false reading on my instruments saying that we are higher than we really are."






3. "We're not trying to ruin your fun by making you take off your headphones. We just want you to be able to hear us if there's an emergency."






4. "We ask you to put up the window shade so the flight attendants can see outside in an emergency, to assess if one side is better for an evacuation. It also lets light into the cabin if it goes dark and helps passengers get oriented if the plane flips or rolls over."
