This is surely a post for the boffins on Jet Blast, it has a distinct Jet Blast ring to it. Talking of jet blasts and on a more serious note: Do we risk travel sickness due to the speed we are travelling (9oo kts on the EQ)?
Would we all fall over if the Earth suddenly stopped rotating.

We could place little buttons on lamp posts in the street so that people could ring the bell twice when they wanted to get off the Earth and visit a nearby constellation perhaps . . ?
If we are to fly the planet around the universe, would the pilots` licence be regulated by ICAO or would EASA have to stick their noses in?
Would an Earth type rating cost the Earth?
Re: Training. Where would the safest option be for a PFL?
Could we set up a roadside assistance team to repair the Earth in the event of a Terrestrial breakdown?
