I have never claimed to know everything. I don't need to fly to know
things.


Of course not. But you don't know **** anyway.

Hello everybody,
I want to tell you what's happened during a Finnair flight from
Helsinki to Milan, I'm not an expert of flight.

During the entire flight, I noticed that the aircraft was continuosly
rolling to right, and the pilot was correcting every 10-20 seconds the
attitude. I noticed this, because I was looking to the right wing and
the wing was continuosly going down of few centimeters, and after few
seconds there was a slight correction.


Not unusual at all. It could just be normal cycling of the autopilot.


Or even normal flexing in turbulence. In the larger planes it's not
unusual to see a foot or so of movement.

I've been on a 737 where it was a pretty rough ride. You could watch
those wing tips going up and down and even the engine nacels shaking.
Of course there were only about 10 of us who weren't talking to RALPH
in a lunch bag.

Of course we didn't hit the rough air until they were picking up
*after* breakfast. I think a lot of Wheaties and milk curdled.
Riding in a plane with over a 100 puking passengers in definitely not
my idea of fun!

Pansy. I laugh at puke.... as long as you don't get any on me. It goes back to
my days running a dive shop. We'd go out on the water and somebody would
invariably get seasick: "Hey, you gonna eat that sandwich?"
