Lookit all these people without apple wallet, that poo poo just works. (I also carry a mophie case when traveling too because gently caress those United A320s without power in them). For content: there's an An-124 parked here at Seatac. That thing is huge.

luminalflux posted:Lookit all these people without apple wallet, that poo poo just works. It works when the airline provides the right format of electronic boarding pass, and even on Android there are plenty of apps that can handle Apple Wallet formatted passes. Sometimes it's a massive-rear end pain to get that format though, or outright impossible to do it. Air Europa was a loving pain in the rear end to do it with, let me tell you! I think I finally got it working, but I had to tether my iPhone to my Android's cellular data (since I didn't have a local SIM for the iPhone), then download the Air Europa app on my iPhone, get the Apple Wallet boarding pass through the buggy app, and then share it via e-mail so I could download it on my Android phone, which would then display it via a 3rd-party app.

A yellow Twin Otter flew over the yard today at a few hundred feet, it was flying a mow the lawn sort of pattern. I'd never seen one in the area before. It looks like it was bombing the area with rabies vaccine. https://news.ontario.ca/mnr/en/2016/03/ontario-resuming-rabies-vaccination-bait-drops.html

Twin Otters are as cool as rabies is horrible. I had to get two big rear end needles in the rear end and one a week for a month in the arm because of potential exposure. All because my wife and I played with puppies at a flea market. I'm just glad I didn't need to take the needles in the abdomen like you did back in the day.

It didn't turn out  so instead have a picture of downtown.Had about 45 minutes to kill until boarding so took the terminal train and ducked over to the Delta lounge in S terminal in SEA The macaroni and cheese and thai curry soup was absolute tits.

borrowed my partner's camera and took a few pics from my balcony of the Toronto Air Show. Couldn't get much, but got a few passing shots!

As if overhead bin usage wasn't already a complete clusterfuck.

Remove the overhead bins entirely. Put an extra peg under the seats to prevent anything but small carry on's from fitting. Airline basks in boarding and deplaneing that takes a fraction of the time we are used to. Also the cabin will look infinitely better.

EDIT: ^^^^ That works, too.Midjack posted:How do you propose to implement this without massively complicating boarding? How do they tag hand baggage with "cabin baggage allowed" tags prior to the flight? It would be exactly like that, except these are ones that you pay for at check-in instead. How would this be even slightly difficult? It's easier than everyone trying to bring a "slightly" oversized roller-bag and dealing with the resulting Tetris. People would spend less time standing in the aisle, boarding times could easily be cut in half I imagine.

Maybe we could make this accessible from the inside, let the passengers use it, then charge Kafkaesque fees for checked bags and sell the space in the hold to cargo carriers.

Create an actual steerage class, where people just bulk load themselves into the cargo bays with their worldly possessions + animals. IFE provided by that gypsy looking guy with the fiddle.

Please we've had a branch of government studying how to fit the most people in a tube for a long time now. Just do it like a sub. Your carry on is also your pillow. You can stretch out, and have less space at the same time!
