I love this Video! Its my favorite plane at my favorite airport! And you, mikey69up, do and absolutely splendid job capturing the beauty of flight in this video, and in all your videos! Everybody, if you havn't seen the Alaska Airlines 737-700 in Tucson and landing in Seattle, you need to see it! It's fantastic work. I do have one question though, what seat number were you sitting in on this US Airways flight? I would love to be able to sit in that seat.
thanks a bunch matt. i don't have my flight stubs from this one but i'm pretty sure it was either 21F or 22F. depending on the airline it may be an E seat and not an F seat for the right window. mesa i believe goes A-C---D-F where other airlines could go A-B---D-E
a lot of times the captain will sound the beep, then the flight attendant will call the flightdeck and the captain will let them know if it is time to serve snacks or drinks..
The 'beeping noise' or chime is signaled as we pass through 10,000 feet. Means no more sterile cockpit. Time to fire up the iPods and the Flight Attendants can get up and serve and call the cockpit if they want to.
That means anybody who's NOT violating federal law and specific crewmember instructions putting other law abiding passengers at risk operating an electronic device below 10,000 feet may NOW use those approved electronic devices.
Going? I'm just talking @ the 10k feet beep and announcement. I'm stating unequivocally a point or too regarding electronic devices on takeoff inside an airliner. More explicitly:
1. It is a violation of federal law for an airline passenger to operate an electronic device below 10,000 feet. This law exists as an abundance of caution to prevent possible interference with aviation electronics required for safe flight.
sigh, a fool and his life are soon separated. Hopefully, he doesn't take too many others with him.... Those darn laws and pesky FAA regulations! Mikey69up knows what's good enough for airline travel. There are so many passengers like you. What's a little 151 Rum in the baggage compartment? Why not put the oxygen generator in,what could happen? Maybe when you've got a loved one on a plane you'll see things my way. Right now it sounds like you're gonna live forever, am I right? I'm over it.
you should write a novel about how the government is slowly poisoning you via your frosted cherios. crawl back into your little steril air only bubble and block out the fact that there is more to life than your apparent OCD condition.
Just out of curiousity could you provide any stats on major air crashes related to personal electronic devices used in flight. Given the rampant use of such devices there must be several examples you can provide me.
A year after the fact but I will chime in anyway as I have just seen this video. There is NO law against "electronic devices" being used on airlines. Only those that emit a signal. Aprroved uses of electronic devices at ANY stage of flight is, of course, pace makers, hearing aids, electric shavers and, and this is very important here, portable video recorders and cameras. Only cell phones are banned and this is at any stage of flight regardless of altitude.
Computers or any type of hand held gaming device, CD or DVD players, can be used above 10000'. Flight attendants don't have the time to explain what can and can't be done in every little instance so they say "electronic devices". If they see a cell phone, they will tell you to turn it off. If they see a video camera, they say nothing.
What's the 900 like? I have only been on 100's, 200's and 700's.
loud?
Comfortable?

not even
you dont hav to turn your fone off.
you can just put it in "airplane mode"
alot of fones have that so you dont even have to shut it off.
But like no radios or anything like that.
even DVD players are fine
they jus say turn off all electronic devises because they dont wanna pay the money to reserch what elecrtonic devices can be used
jbriggs1966 is rite about what he said too
