This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Fuel prices are really too high to turn on the A/C when flying.

Can't wait till pilots try fuelmaxxing by coasting.

opening a window will generally use way more gas than using a/c.

I think opening windows on an airplane is generally frowned upon

There's a speed threshold where it flips over, Mythbusters tried it.
