standing passengers

not sure if going off thread here, but i once remember being on a flight from POP, and landing at manchester. no sooner than we were off the runway, the obligatory passengers started to stand and reach into the overhead lockers. cabin crew made an announcement telling them to sit down. some did, some just ignored. another announcement was made. very shortly after, just as we were passing the aviation park, the aircraft came to a compleate stop. then the boss came over the PA, saying that the plane would not move one inch until he had been advised by his cabin crew that all passengers were firmly seated. the 3 / 4 passengers who were still standing all of a sudden went red in the face, and accordingly sat down to a raptous round of applause from the well behaved passengers.

well done to the MYT captain for putting them in their places........
