In my aircraft (not an airline) pax are strapped in and their "bags" are in the baggage compartment. Everything elsE is stowed for T/O and Landing. I suspect that this is the case in airlines too and especially in legacy carriers. If not, than there is some blame on the CC or the pax justified, NOT the pilots.
Train drivers braking vs. pilot braking ? REALLY ? What about the emergency brake in trains, cushioned off as well ? As in "not to upset me" ?
