So, if you ever notice a crew and pilot together, you may be witnessing a romantic couple.
- Oxygen in the oxygen mask – It’s quite important to know that there is only fifteen minutes of oxygen that you can breathe once you pull it towards you in case of any crisis. But don’t worry. This time is enough for the pilot to drop the level to a low altitude where breathing would be much easier.
- Planes do get struck by lightning – One of the biggest secrets that airlines are not ready to divulge is that aircraft get struck by lightning every now and then. Most of the time it may happen when you travel in turbulent weather. The only reason people don’t get hurt or know about them is because the intensity of these strikes is very low.
- The lavatories can be opened from outside – The lavatories in the plane can be opened from outside in case someone is hurt or falls sick inside. So, next time you are inside, remember it can be opened from outside. However, you are safe inside until something bad happens to you.
