OK, two things.

Firstly to those who constantly question the requirement to briefly desist from using electronic toys when in flight, the only reason you need is 'because the crew told you so'. You are legally required to obey the lawful orders of the crew. There are plenty of very valid reasons why you are told not to use certain toys at certain times and while you may think you know better, you don't. This has been covered ad nauseam so do a search.

Secondly, I know this is the spotters forum but for the love of God, can people please desist from posting videos of utterly un-noteworthy flights, landings and takeoffs. Also reporting every completely mundane and routine maintenance action or diversion as if it's a terrible emergency. If something is unusual, interesting or special, by all means, but the internet is going to fill up very quickly if every non-event gets its own thread and youtube video.

Rant over.
