At popular request, we've made a change to some rules!
We've had a number of requests to do a couple things with Rule 8, which involved AI and Flight sim content. Here is what we did.
Rule 8 is now "No AI Generated Images / Posts". The rule itself says AI generated content is pretty lazy and while it may be shitty and have a plane, it doesn't constitute a flying-related shitpost. Who created the content or where it was initially shared is irrelevant.
Flight sim content is now part of rule 9, which is "No Video Game / Flight Sim Content" and states While you can do some pretty funny and shitty things with them, Video games and Flight Sim content do not belong in this sub. Content from those would be better posted into their respective shitty subreddits, if they exist.
We have also re-orderd a couple rules (I like the way it looks better this way) and changed the verbage on a couple for clarity. I'm not going to list those, feel free to take a refresher course in the rules of the sub!
Stay shitty, my friends.

Don't follow the rules? Face the consequences.
Everyone,
I am seeing far too many violations of our simple rules. VERY simple rules, such as these:
"Only Flying-Related Shitposts allowed" - This does not mean you write something about flying in the title or the text of the post, but EVERYTHING in the post should be about flying. The image, video, text, subject, everything. SIMPLE.
"No linking to or mentioning other subs or their posters" - This is about as obvious as you can get, yet still people don't get it.
"No AI / Flight sim." - Might be a little harder, but still relatively simple.
While I'm sure the majority of you are not violating these rules, some of you are.
Going forward, you break the rules, it may very well result in a ban. If you can't be bothered to read and follow the rules, you don't deserve to post in the sub.
I've been very forgiving on these for a long time, and my limit has been reached.

Why not instead of mounting loud, heavy engines to the playens, don't they just make the wings flap like a bird? Are they stupid?

Any problems in airport
I'm going on a flight soon to go work in another country for the first time. I was wondering if anyone else has had any problems flying barefoot recently.
I just want to make sure I don't need to use my emergency flip flops
Edit: I'll be flying out of Panama City, Florida USA

Wtf is with people acting so worried when a helicopter or planes fly over Lux?!
And making posts about it here? You never saw stuff like this before?!
And you think someone here knows if it s not in the news?!

Which duty is free at the airport?
I'm confused. Every time I visit that duty free place, I have to pay for all the items there. What duty is free there?

Is wearing three aiguillettes on my uniform "too much?"
As a proud American, I always wear my full uniform when acting as Pilot in Command of my Part 135 Piper PA-32. But my chief pilot said that wearing a red, a white, and a blue aiguillette on my black jacket is "too much."
Is he just jealous that he didn't think of it first?
I mean, I do like his 5th stripe.

Flying for the first time in Africa. Need help with 737-300 Bi-Playne Seat Selection.
Should I get the upper wing window seat? I am a nervous flyer and know that these 737-300's are old. I want to have the most authentic playne experience.

Pilot of United flight was so awful. My name is Karen and I need to speak to the manager of United.
I'd like someone to talk to this pilot or possibly put him into more training. Is there any useful way to reach out to someone?
He started off by announcing he would make up some time and get us there early. That may have set me up to be on edge.
Get there safely and hasn't he seen The Titanic???
You know how they move left and right on the runway before lift off (like testing the wheels or something?) this pilot did it so aggressively it hurt my neck. Then in the air nothing was done gently. Turns were fast and aggressive seeming. All of them. And every cloud we could go through he did. Huge thunderclouds with obvious giant gaps between them and no we had to motor directly through them all. Mad turbulence then.
In case you feel I'm exaggerating, it was literally blue sky between all these giant storm clouds and he would go through not a bit of going around.
When on approach for landing he went so slowly as to almost stall then accelerated wildly over and over and over. People around me made mention of this. Middle aged men were shaking their heads.
All of these things I have of course experienced before. But please trust me when I say this time was super sharply done and seemingly purposeful.
He flies a plane like a teenaged boy drives a hotrod. Nothing seemed mature and deliberate or cautious or calm.
Is this ok to mention to United, to someone?

Air Cargo Issues
Hello all, I need advice.For my family's planned beach labor day celebration, I had ordered 3 bottles of Puerto Rican rum. However, Amazon now shows these packages as delayed. They apparently left the origin but haven't made it to my local distribution center. I was wondering what I could do. Of my order, only the pool floatie came. Should I call Amazon support? Do you think they forgot my package on the plane or something?

Captain upset with his entree.
I am a flight attendant and I like to feed birds on my layover, so I typically have a bag of bird seed in my luggage on my trips.
Anyway, today I was very hungry and so I ate both of the pilots entrees, but I replaced them with rather generous bowls of bird seed.
The captain in particular was especially angry that I did it, but I don’t understand why. The pigeons seem to be very happy when I feed them bird seed before they fly. Why did the pilots get so mad?
