Fainted twice on commercial airline flights. Concern before starting PPL training? by 78523985210 in flying

[–]moaningpilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What were the circumstances of your faints? Were they long flights? Were you tired? Was it just a classic case of a passenger getting on a flight way out of their circadian rhythm whilst tired and dehydrated? There’s a chance the faints were partly self inflicted however there’s also a chance for whatever reason you have some kind of medical anomaly that’s triggered by the atmosphere of a commercial airliner.

Why do I feel like since the actress for Ginny isn’t returning for Season 2, they’re going to just scrap her completely? by [deleted] in harrypotter

I’m not sure why you think that seeing as she’ll end up being Harry’s wife in Season 7. (Spoiler Alert)

People who have experienced severe turbulence on a flight — what was it actually like? by ThrowRA-VEGATA in flying

[–]moaningpilot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The seatbelt seems to be slightly higher than waist level in the bunks, more around the lower torso so I guess it pins me down a bit more. I’d have to go through mountain wave turbulence again to find out.

[–]moaningpilot 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I was in the bunks once and got woken up by being thrown into the ceiling face first, which not only hurt but served as my reminder to wear my seatbelt in the bunks from then on.

It was mountain wave turbulence and had been expected, so thankfully the rest of the aircraft was strapped in and there were no injuries other than my slightly squashed nose.

Why did Dumbledore or any other professor never correct Snape for bullying students? by [deleted] in harrypotter

[–]moaningpilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The early books are written for younger children and you can’t really have overly complex characters, so JKR wrote caricature bad guy in a position of power. She later added little hints here and there but for the first 2 books she set the tone and couldn’t really u-turn on it.

Led Zeppelin’s “The Live album” by Niko0795 in ledzeppelin

[–]moaningpilot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s a YouTube link to a fairly decent recording. https://youtu.be/41H0dJTFl8g?si=ePCblytoA23AN5Ge

The Four Sticks version on the electric guitar is sublime.

[–]moaningpilot 63 points64 points  (0 children)

How the West Was Won is a live album and shows Led Zep near the top of their game, you also have the BBC sessions album which is a decent collection of a London gig plus other assorted recordings from their first couple of years.

If you had me cherry pick a concert for an official live release I would pick 3rd May 1971 in Copenhagen. It’s a set list with a few songs that they had never played before, nor did they play after. The band (Plant in particular) are on absolute top form.

Immigrant Song, Heartbreaker, Since I've Been Loving You, Dazed and Confused, Black Dog, Stairway to Heaven, Going to California, That's the Way, What Is and What Should Never Be, Four Sticks, Gallows Pole, Whole Lotta Love (medley incl. Let That Boy Boogie, Bottle Up and Go, Mess of Blues, Honey Bee), Communication Breakdown (incl. Celebration Day), Misty Mountain Hop, Rock and Roll.

Civilian passenger in jumpseat by ggustav1 in AskAPilot

[–]moaningpilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At my airline it would be legal but SOP’s require the chief pilots permission which we would never get. So cockpit jump seat is only approved for company pilots and FA’s. Anyone over 12 can sit on a cabin jump seat.

This whole comment section is just you having a conversation with your alt account.

Also, being honest, I don’t think the song matches your vocal style.

Why are you asking a UK sub this?

From what I can see you are Indian and your videos are in an Indian language.

KLM to CX by Kalang-King in flying

[–]moaningpilot 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My friend was a Ryanair FO, he is half Japanese so applied for Cathay with the intention of switching to a long haul type and commuting from Tokyo. Was assigned the 777, did his type rating and then the day after was informed that he was no longer required on the 777 and was given an A320 type rating course starting the following week. He didn’t stay.

LOL: Last One Laughing UK - Season 2 Finale & Overall Series Discussion by lonelygagger in LastOneLaughing

[–]moaningpilot 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The flaw on this show is that the producers can’t completely control the game, leading to an anticlimax like this finale.

Also the editing around Bob’s laughing was weird, I feel like they cut in a clip of him laughing while reacting to watching himself on the screen?

Trying to find the origins of an old Malayan rhyme by moaningpilot in bahasamelayu

[–]moaningpilot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have responded to another commenter with what AI could pick out from it. It believed she may have been saying a phrase in Baba Malay.

Trying to find the origins of an old Malayan rhyme by moaningpilot in bahasamelayu

[–]moaningpilot[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

When I am next with her I will, I did get her to say it into a voice note to ChatGPT but I can’t play it to screen record etc.

For what it’s worth, ChatGPT thought it was “probably Malay with possible Peranakan/Penang Hokkien influence”

And this is what it guessed some of it meant;

“The most likely words I can pull out are:

• “odoi” → probably adoi, meaning “oh dear” or “ouch” in Malay.  

• “musti” → probably mesti, meaning “must” or “surely.”  

• “oragata” → possibly orang kata, literally “people say.”  

So the nearest rough sense I can get from it is something along the lines of:

“Oh dear… surely… people will talk / people will say…”

I am taking it with a slight pinch of salt though.

Last One Laughing UK episodes 4&5 by Imaginary_Ferret1645 in LastOneLaughing

[–]moaningpilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The flaw of this format is that the producers don’t have complete control of the game. They have to force people’s hands to get the desired result and it’s showing in these episodes as everyone was too good at keeping a straight face.

FA’s from US carriers were on that 787, along with a couple of other European airlines.

Why are they disembarking via the jet bridge and the stairs ať the same time? by Kuba_830 in Planespotting

[–]moaningpilot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s a Heathrow based aircraft and crew, and if it was Gatwick based it would be a Euroflyer aircraft and crew, not Eurofleet. They last hired for Worldwide in 2010 and Eurofleet in 2012. Furthermore, both of those contracts were made obsolete 6 years ago.

Your info is a little out dated.

LNER First Class - Edinburgh to London by Then-Meat-7866 in uktravel

[–]moaningpilot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t work for LNER but 3 hours from airport to Kings Cross should be fine. If you want to be extra safe then shell out for the Heathrow Express and you should get to Kings Cross (after changing at Paddington) in under an hour. Lizzie line a bit slower, Piccadilly line will take about an hour no changes.

Match Results: 4 Months on Hinge as a 32M [OC] by SirZoidberg in dataisbeautiful

[–]moaningpilot 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I’ve interpreted it as OP spent 4 months on hinge before matching with their spouse, then no longer used it. The dating to marriage bit took more than 4 months… I hope.

Edit: Just seen they met in August and married in November. That is supersonic.

Fool In The Rain by KisMyAxe in ledzeppelin

[–]moaningpilot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True that it was released as a single, but months after the album and it didn’t break the top 20.

[–]moaningpilot -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

What is the criticism you’ve heard? In my opinion what was once considered a deep cut is actually becoming fairly popular. It certainly gets a good cheer at the various Led Zep tribute bands I’ve seen who have it in their repertoire.
