@aryangod2003 I do agree this seems to be mostly basic knowledge that even a child would know. However I have come to the understanding of acquired knowledge supersedes the old common sense approach. An excellent example is slippery when wet signs, or even 1st year apprentice on their first day. I feel it's better to acquire knowledge and not just believe you know it already. This in turn avoids accidents. For instance, I knew planes go higher to save costs (along with safety of concerning lower heights plus noise). I understood the air was 'lighter' or thinner, so obviously less resistance. But I didn't have all the tech associated with it, or the exact reason why it's 30,000 and not 25,000. Clearly the atmosphere and even the Earth's circumference is valid. I basically have never acquired this knowledge (no need to learn). And my common sense towards it may even be mistaken!

And pilots with outdated beliefs wearing ridiculous symbols on their uniform. An 'instructor' should begin stopping these silly things.

Still waiting for the flying saucer planes like in the Jetsons.
