Airline Paints Plane With Idiot’s Guide To Flying
Posted By Ben Goulding, 19 February, 2010 | permalink
South African low-fare airline, Kulula, have given one of their new Boeing 737-800s a re-branding, by covering the plane with funny remarks and a beginner’s guide to flying.
Some of the cheeky remarks include the captain’s window being marked as the big cheese (”captain, my captain!”), the co-pilot’s window as co-captain (the other pilot on the PA system) and the jump seat as wannabe pilots.
In addition, the following descriptions of plane parts can be found:
- galley (cuppa anyone?)
- avionics (fancy navigation stuff)
- windows (best view in the world)
- wing #1 and #2
- engine #1 and #2 (26 000 pounds of thrust)
- emergency exit = throne zone (more leg room baby!)
- seats (better than taxi seats)
- some windows = kulula fans (the coolest peeps in the world)
- black box (which is actually orange)
- landing gear (comes standard with supa-fly mags)
- back door (no bribery/corruption here)
- tail (featuring an awesome logo)
- loo (or mile-high club initiation chamber)
- rudder (the steering thingy)
- stabiliser (the other steering thingy)
- a.p.u. (extra power when you need it most)
- galley (food, food, food, food…)
- boot space
- ZS-ZWP (OK-PIK) = secret agent code (aka plane’s registration)
- overhead cabins (VIP seating for your hand luggage)
- fuel tanks (the go-go juice)
- cargo door
- aircon ducts (not that kulula needs it… they’re already cool)
- front door (our door is always open … unless we’re at 41 000 feet)
- cockpit window = sun roof
- nose cone (radar, antenna, and a really big dish inside)
