How can a placard in an aircraft have a usability issue?
This plate was bolted to the bullhead in the front row of a 737-800 in an Alaska flight.
What jars the eye of the mind, once you come around to internalizing it, is the casual juxtaposition of
an important but seeming mundane act of keeping your seat belt fastened to keep you braced in the high probablity event of turbulence
with
the extreme rare scenario (hopefully) of an airplane "landing" on water and you ladies and gentleman - guzzling on free drinks - please
(1) wrap your arms around the seat cushion that you have been lazing around so far twiddling your thumbs
(2) step out of the cozy cabin and
(3) hope the damn thing floats.
No?
