On November 18, Middle School journeyed a long four hours to South Seattle to the Museum of Flight. We went on a tour called "The Dream of Flight," and our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable. Did you know that until 1930, passing out food and coffee and tending to the passengers was a pilot's duty? In 1930, Ellen Church, a student-pilot and registered nurse convinced Boeing management to hire women as stewardesses, as this image would alleviate the widespread fear of flying. She and seven other nurses became the first airline stewardesses.
The students jumped on a couple simulators, and there was a clear favorite because you could hear the girls screaming from the other side of the hangar. The larger simulator didn't make anyone scream at all, so what's the point, right? In the smaller simulator, the riders could control their movement, which meant dangerous jerking back and forth and long durations upside-down screaming.
If it's not broken, there is a unanimous recommendation to stick with the small simulator. Skip the big simulator, as it provides no nausea, no trauma, and no possible vomiting.
Thanks to Arnold for driving the long haul and Miss Roberta for being a great chaperone.
