No ANR headsets on takeoff?

It's also for your safety, your body can handle a lot more G-force such as a sudden stop if you are sitting straight up. To the guy that was peeved that the FA told him to sit up instead of slumping over into the seat next to him, the same thing applies. Your spine would be a lot more likely to suffer serious injury if you are reclining or leaning off to the side. The FA may not even know why she has to ask you this and you obviously don't know but that doesn't make any difference, it's for your own good.

Nonsense, you are far more likely to survive an impact if you are unconscious verses tense and rigid.

Or if you don't survive you are far more likely not to care.

Drunk drivers have a higher survival rate than their victims because many of them never saw it coming and were relaxed.

I've had FAs tell me to take out my earplugs.

Please say that you put the FA's in their place and left them in.

WOW....sure glad I moved up to flying boxes.

 

[tubineotter]

No kidding, I'm glad i fly boxes. I surely couldn't handle dealing with the Galley Hag Sargent's all day. No offense!

The people who made the rules regarding seats being up has never seen an actual crash site.


Haha! You be lucky to find the right seat much less a seat back in an "upright" position.

Not if you're laying sideways across two seats, no chance in hell.
