BA4 and 5 are spreading like wildfire. More than half of the people I known who’ve flown in the last month have gotten COVID. There are concerns about repeated infections leading to lifelong chronic health issues. Doctors here in the US are despairing that we’ve surrendered to COVID. I’m not so sure the dropping of masks in airports and airplanes will turn out to have been a wise choice. I don’t know. We’ll see.

We were talking 2 days ago about how we have also noticed a change in people's attitudes towards each other in the last 2 years. We decided it was due to the political situations in the West. Every Western country seems to have been effected.

the turbulance may have caused such an excessive motion that it caused the a319's autopilot to switch off. that couldve also triggered a switch or wire to be slightly offput to turn of the lights but the beeping was prob just the autopilot disconnect.

@sav47 2 жыл бұрын

The autopilot disconnect aural warning will not be heard all the way in the back of the cabin. Most likely a smoke alarm going off in one of the lavatories due to a faulty smoke detector.

On a good note: Love your flights it allways makes us feel we are sitting right next to you... keep up the smiles in the high skies Josh!

It's great to see African countries investing in their airlines and operating them with modern aircraft and safety/maintenance that meets or exceeds industry standards. It's also great to see a country like Senegal building a new, modern airport.
