Notice how they used seat belts (!) to solve the problem with vibration in the turbine engine (which looks like a couple of ducks have been through there already).

You'd better fasten your seatbelts on that plane if it helps...:blink:

Well, if there are any left :wink:

As a Danish comedian said yesterday "You're crashing towards earth in a 400 ton airplane from an altitude of 11 km with a speed of several hundred km/h - ooh! better tighten that seatbelt at bit more! Better not bump my head on the seat in front of me!"

I flew with one back in '95... before they were that modernised in china. And damn, did I have trouble squeezing into the seats. And my kneecaps were forced into the seat in front of me... no such thing nowadays... but hey, I got some crap pin for the tie and a fake leather wallet as a gesture for flying with them!

That's just scary :blink:. One of my friends has just come back for a holiday in the middle of her year abroad teaching English as a foreign language in China. Am somewhat glad she's still *alive* now...
