Missus just read out a funny thing to me.
‘ I’ve been going steady with Carl for 3 years now and at the moment we’re on our first holiday abroad. When our plane landed I discovered that he’s one of those wankers who claps when it lands. Do I bin him?’
Well I found it amusing.
Funny though.
People tip or thank someone bringing them some reheated food, they will tip the taxi driver, they will say thanks drive to the bus driver but clap a landing by a highly skilled pilot flying hundreds of millions worth of metal over countries and continents and you're a ****ing weirdo
Can't say I take part, not since I was encouraged to as a little kid by my nan about 25 years ago but I've always assumed it was a mix of relief and some appreciation to the flight crew.
It would happen regularly whenever I flew into Mumbai from Delhi, but then they were all pretty dodgy landings!
I wonder if it was a female pilot and he thought that task was beyond her?
He probably thinks, despite no training whatsoever, that he can reverse the plane into the gate better than she ever could.
