Some people seriously injured in flight overnight, while I feel sorry for the people killed or injured I suspect most of the injured ignored the airline guidelines.

I've probably already been around the globe a dozen times or more having racked up 500K miles two decades ago and stopped counting, it must be hundreds and hundreds of flights mostly international.

I've never been on the flight were they tell you don't bother with your seatbelt and leave your crap on the floor. Yet I see people do this every flight, worse they undo the belt and have a sleep. I can't say how many times I've seen clear air turbulence hit one of the flights I've been on, enough turbulence to send the staff and service carts heading towards the ceiling. The worst I've suffered is having the person next to me spill a coffee on my legs. Yet people continually ignore the warnings, people are stupid!

On one flight after such an event I had to berate a passenger who unloaded on a hostess for not serving when the seatbelt light came on, people are stupid and ignorant.

Like cigarette packet warnings, as cruel as it may be for some nervous flyers, the airlines should show a movie about what happens to make passengers realise how serious the recommendations are.

It's not just the offenders who get hurt, it's the people around them.

Sportsbet  Carlton $1.41   GCS $2.92  What do they know that we don't?????
only thing that might work in our favour is that the Suns might be gassed after training in the heat.  I'm tipping against us this week even if we are favourites.   We aren't running out games well and I don't see any indication that this will improve this week.
