What are some things that most people don't know about air travel?

 There are many things that are so mysterious and interesting.

  • As the plane gains altitude, our taste buds become less active. That's why airplane food tastes so delicious.
  • It is impossible to enter the airplane lavatory. This is because there is another latch/link beneath the label on the outside of the lavatory door that crew members can use to open it in an emergency.
  • The pilot and co-pilot eat different foods. This is essential for protection against food poisoning.
  • The lights are dimmed when the plane takes off or lands. The idea is that in those circumstances, if the light is intense and you have to exit through the emergency door in an emergency situation, you quickly become accustomed to seeing the outside world in that situation. This means that momentary blindness does not arise from light in darkness.
  • It has been shown that wings only provide a sense of proportion. Red light on the left and green light on the right. This is because the pilot of an aircraft flying at a different altitude or level can tell which aircraft is coming from the same direction.
  • The small hole in the airplane window balances the pressure and prevents extremely cold air from entering from outside.
  • Sitting in the back of the plane is safe, especially in an accident or emergency. (This is the conclusion of a study by NTSB experts after three years of data analysis.)
