Flapping isn't the way airplanes are supposed to fly!

While on route from Costa Rica to Colombia, an Avianca Airbus A319 declared an emergency after hitting severe turbulence that injured several of the crewmembers.
If you ever needed reminding of why it is always best to have your seatbelt fastened while flying, read what happened on a routine flight over Central America.

You see some strange things on flights, from unruly passengers to bizarre luggage. But a recent video of one American Airlines passenger airing out his shoes using the overhead air vent definitely takes the cake so far this year.

This was a strange one. FR24 have been all over it since the first report and initially had reports from US officials that the aircraft involved was an Ariana aircraft, either a 738 or A310, which was only corrected when some locals put pictures of the downed E-11A on twitter. I suspect the aircraft involved was on a mission that may or may not have been totally official.
A million great ideas...

If there is an award for the most stupid pax of the year, she definitely take the cake {facepalm}

On Friday, January 24th, Katie Hinsen was headed to the Sundance Film Festival, traveling on American Airlines flight 648 from Phoenix to Salt Lake City. Unfortunately, Katie’s flight would be delayed because a woman missed the final call, making it to the gate seconds too late. With checked baggage on board, she was told to take the next flight and meet her bags at the destination. Her reaction? Tell the gate agents that she had a bomb in her bag…

Three New Zealand women were allegedly denied business class seats on a Thai Airways flight to Auckland in January because they were too big to fly in the seats. It was not a ‘smooth as silk’ experience for them.

Some quality preflighting combines with some quality runway inspecting, resulting in an E145 having an unscheduled meeting with a towbar.

I just hope they're getting fed and watered, not kept ready for an immediate return.

Andrés Manuel López Obrador, the Mexican president, doesn’t travel on private jets. This has lead to a whole new bunch of problems that the airlines and the passengers have to deal with. For instance, last week, a Mexican family voluntarily got down of a plane on which the president was on board, due to security reasons.
