And you might have felt a small increased pressure from that lapstrap that you still had fastened. Maybe better not to fasten your belt next time, 'cos you'd never want any discomfort from that ruining your day in a serious emergency, would you?
You've come on here to gripe about some braking which undoubtedly was done for safety and not just for the fun of doing it to ruin your day. It doesn't take much to upset you! Truly awful. I hope you have recovered from what must have been a terrifying and shocking experience. The acceleration on take off can sometimes be a bit severe too, especially on those shorter runways, so maybe complain to the pilots (both of them, remember - jointly and severally guilty of such gross misconduct) about that as well. Everything just for your ultimate comfort, b0II0(&$ to everyone else's safety. Heaven forbid they ever dared an emergency descent after an explosive decompression. "Take it down real slow, we'd never want any complaints from binzer back there, would we". Let everyone pass out with hypoxia rather than upset old 'whinger binzer'!
Might I respectfully suggest only travelling by foot from now on, as cars, even trains sometimes have to brake more sharply than the driver might wish, purely for the safety of their passengers and themselves. Oh, what a rotten world, with cars and trains and planes with brakes, and the drivers / pilots sometimes having to use them.
Might you have over-indulged from the generosity of the cabin crew and this was the real cause of your belly-ache?
Just askin'!
Blimey Pilotmike you must of been on the same flight and spilt your coffee,, something rattle your cage. Like others have said it happens . I do have the pleasure of sitting in the front lhs and also being pax going into Geneva a lot and yes it does happen quite frequently especially on Swiss. And as everyone knows who use Geneva you have a lot of airlines in and out so I can compare Why does everyone oh no you, think it’s a safety issue all the time, coming on the easterly exits d and c are very close and b is only a bit further,,, It’s about time saving that’s all, By your thinking most of my flights into Geneva are all near missus and they’re only just making it safely. And you probably thought you were the only pilot on this forum. Come down from your ivory tower and mix with the rest of the world.
