Use Of Autopilot
If you’re a fan of the movie Airplane, it might shock you to know that the auto-pilot is not a blow up doll with a captain’s hat! Ok, you know we’re kidding. But autopilot really is a computer. Do Pilots use it? Absolutely! In fact, they use it for up to 90% of flight time. Pilots are responsible for takeoff and landing, but a computer is fit to do the rest.
Best Time To Fly
Evening flyers, be warned! According to flight attendants, the morning flights are the best flights because they are the most comfortable. They’re not comfortable because you get extra pillows and blankets, though. The weather is usually better in the mornings, and so there’s a lessened chance of turbulence to disturb the flight.
