I have failed.

Here are two things I couldn't get them AIs to make right despite repeated attempts, so please use your imagination:
-A cockpit full of guarded switches.
-A flat Earth supported by four donkeys standing on a giant Squid.

Send me a basementphoto and I will copy the museum sign above and paste it on to your photo.

Sorry, had to state the obvious :ugeek:

I suppose it’s an illusion, some of the planes seem to climb.

I miss the olden days when there were awesome landing lights way out on the wings.

Cool photo.

But as they say there: Focus, cropping, backlit.

I suppose they are generally short of full photos of aircraft undersides.

The comments at Reddit are also popcorn-worthy.

Not much interesting about the photo itself, but I'm very jealous of the person's camera!

Great flight report, but what about…

…the obligatory beverage and snack photo?

Glad to hear about the IFE.

ON a more serious note: The window screens are up.

Wow! Just... wow!

I suppose/hope they were well and goodly attached to the airplane.

Of course nothing else on the storage racks was...

Edit: looking at the image more closely, it seems most of the stuff on the storage racks is pillows and blankets. Where are all the huge wheelie cases holding everyone's earthly belongings? :roll:

Well, it is frequently said that people were less stupid in the past...

I wonder if, in case of emergency, people tried to rescue the pillows, blankets and monitors in lieu of carry-on luggage...

Beautiful :clap: .
Not_Karlie can almost smell the cigars all those captains were undoubtedly smoking. In fact, probably Not_all of that smoke came from the engines...
Aeroplanies were so much sexier back then... :cry:
