Like, I'm on a plane. I don't want to watch Toy Story when I can do that at home, I want to see what the pilots see. And that way every seat has technically a window to look out of.

After watching Mentour Pilot I have an appreciation of just how much training they undergo. It's basically the closest thing we have to a real Starship Enterprise type setting where the captain seems to have an answer to everything that comes up, because that's precisely what they aim for.

I love Mentour Pilot! I'm sad I live in the US and may never have him as a pilot. It's comforting knowing all the extensive training they go through and how many checklists and systems there are to avoid disasters.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
