From unruly passengers, amazingly trashy public hygiene issues, sexual misconduct of passengers (AND staff), and then, there are just the scary landings. She could write a book as well.
Oh, my.....trashy public hygiene issues! In the 737, the forward law is directly behind the Captain’s seat. Up front we could hear and smell everything that was or wasn’t happening in the lav. For instance, we could hear if the soap dispenser was used, or not, the water faucet was used, or not, or if paper towels were pulled out of the dispenser, or not, and if the lav door was locked or not. Especially disturbing was if all the above were “or nots” and the door was unlocked and opened, after an eye irritating odor seeped into the cockpit.
Busher, I’m suspect you and I could fill a multi page thread of adventures with the traveling public.
