Hungarian Rotor Etiquette

In case you didn't know .. in Hungary it is standard practice for the Captain to open his door prior to landing so that, in the event of a passenger passing wind during the landing sequence, the airflow will be drawn through the Captain's door and away from the passengers. The Captain is expected to endure this discomfort as part of his dedicated 'service'.

Also, it is considered good form for passengers to applaud the Captain upon landing. Indeed, enthusiastic or extended applause has, on occasion, been known to attract a discount to the charter bill!
