This stuff is what flight simulators' players dream about.

[-] HappycamperNZ@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago

No, we dream about reasonably priced peripherals, great internet connections and 20 minutes of fucking peace.

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 16 points 2 years ago

I've got like maybe 20h in flight simulator, I use all the assists, I'm still confident I could "totally" land a plane in case of emergency lmao.

[-] Imotali@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I'll take "winwing not charging $300 for what's realistically half the quality of VKB" over trying to land a real plane.... and I own a PA28.

The Airplane! movies hold up, fight me.

(Please don't fight me I'm old and tired.)

[-] bmsok@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

Fight you? You wouldn't even try fighting back except during the playoffs, Kareem!

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

Haven't watched them in a long time, I have no doubts they hold up great as movies, but I'm curious if any of the humour wouldn't pass the current PC guidelines.

[-] NickwithaC@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

It passes. It's all visual gags and word play with no butt of the joke. It is possibly the only timeless comedy that will remain funny for generations to come.

[-] aaaa@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

There's a few times they get racial, but it does manage to stay pretty tame about it all.

When they are showing the newscasters around the world, it certainly skirts the line, but doesn't cross it. Much like the fellows speaking "jive", they pull it off without turning the black men themselves into the joke.

It's terrible when you have to live with a drinking problem

[-] Isoprenoid@programming.dev 17 points 2 years ago

Surely this article can't be serious?

[-] Iron_Lynx@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago

It's serious (probably). And don't call me Shirley.

[-] ShouldIHaveFun@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 years ago

It is probably about a small recreational plane and not an airline, despite what they want you to believe with the image. In this case it is plausible.

[-] GratefullyGodless@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

You should have fun and watch "Airplane", you might have gotten the reference then.

[-] ShouldIHaveFun@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

Will do!

Please excuse me for being so serious ๐Ÿ™‚

[-] Isoprenoid@programming.dev 3 points 2 years ago

I'm envious that you get to watch it for the first time.

[-] ShouldIHaveFun@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Done! That was fun!

It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now.

[-] Denjin@lemmings.world 10 points 2 years ago

Good job they didn't have fish for dinner

[-] sagrotan@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

Do we have clearance, Clarence? Roger.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

What's our vector, Victor?

[-] jballs@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Tower's radio clearance, over!

[-] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago

A medical emergency? What is it?

[-] Schmuppes@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Ted Striker!
