Buster..

Correct.
The visors are up during the most critical phase of all flights:
Take off and landing.
This provides clear vision of whats happening outside:
Engine fires,flaps problems etc
For years QF have argued that the cabin lights must be on full bright for both phases.
In the blink of an eye that has all changed.
Why?
Some idiot in marketing doesn`t want to wake up the pax on descent.
Hell, if I was going to get my arse wet or burnt I would sure as hell like to be awake to exponentially increase my chances of survival.
