AlanHo Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 A passenger fixed a fault on a holiday flight and saved the passengers from a serious delay. It has not gone unnoticed by Ryanair and Easy Jet. Both airlines will soon make it a standard condition for passengers to not only load their own luggage onto the plane - but also carry out any maintenance required including emptying the sewage tank.It all helps to keep costs down and enable the airline to offer cheapo flights.Click here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catgate Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Trust Ryan air to be a bit slow off the mark. Yorkshire Airlines has a trial plane on order which is, in effect just a large delta wing, into which are built four "fusilages". At the front end of each fusilage is a propellor mounted on the end of a shaft which extends to the back end of the fusilage. The passengers sit sideways in each of fusilages, in two rows, facing each other on either side if the shaft. The shaft is cranked like the crankshaft of an infernal combustion engine and the passengers feet are strapped to it. The passengers are also strapped into their seats with a safety belt. This allows them some support as they use maximum thrust to take off.They are talking of "assisted take offs" by building their new airports on the sides of hills. This would also be advantageous for assisted deceleration by being able to land "uphill". Air traffic control would have to be retrained.
