Any ideas

Pretty sure it's military but not sure it's purpose.

Flying Honu Sizing?

Hello! Can someone please tell me if these are the same size? I want to purchase a large model airplane. Is the orange one a bigger model?

Anyone recognize what airline these seats might have belonged to?

Found at our local air and space museum and curious if anyone recognizes them! Also wondering what the little pouch on the back of the seat was used for?

Why are these planes so close together??

I saw these planes today in NC and they felt so close to each other? Is this normal? Why would planes do something like this, just super curious!

What is in this locked overhead bin?

The bin next to this one was unlocked but was not for passenger use. It is used to carry the supply kit and tarmac supply kit. The locked one was unmarked regarding the contents. Spirit operated AirbusA321

Does anyone know how many Bleriot XIs were built? I’m seeing numbers online ranging from 132 to over 900.

What major should I choose?

I plan to go to college and then earn my ATP, which qualifies me to become an airline pilot. I’m considering whether to pursue an aviation-focused major, like professional flight, or to choose a backup major. My backup options are aerospace engineering, systems engineering, or architecture. I’m uncertain about which backup major to choose, as I don’t want to end up investing time and effort in a field I might not ultimately use. Is there anything else you’d suggest I could back up major in?

Flight anxiety

Hi everyone . This Thursday I will be taking an hour long flight. I know it is nothing but I have extreme anxiety about heights and being trapped inside the plane . I am planning on taking 2 mg of Ativan. I don’t normally take Ativan but I have taken it twice leading up to the flight to get use to it. I’m still incredibly worried I will be anxious during the flight and don’t know what to do. If it doesn’t work I’d be panicked the entire flight and anxious. Does anyone have any tips , or any information they can give me. Potentially someone who has had a similar experience. Thank you I would really appreciate any insight
