These Facts About Planes Will Make Your Brain Spin!

Updated: Jun 3




Jet! Set! Go! Ever been on a flight? Yeah, I guess so. It might be the best thing for a kid but for adults, seriously, they think it's a burden. Back to the facts. Today I will tell you some Facts About Planes That Will Make Your Brain Spin!


  1. Turning your phones, laptops, etc. to airplane mode- Yeah Yeah we all know the old saying " Turn on airplane made or else the plane will crash"! Well, that is not true but I'll tell you why we should do it. You see your phone picks up signals from many towers which interfere with the plane's controls and pilots have to work extra hard to land or pilot it.

  2. No water allowed- Some people used to make bombs with some liquids on board a plane so that's why we cannot carry water and airlines give us our own water on the plane.

  3. Why are the airplane windows round or oval- When a plane is in the air, its weakest part are the windows and if there were square or rectangle windows then all the pressure of the air outside would be applied on the corners of the windows so there are circle or oval windows so that the pressure can be distributed evenly.

  4. Cabin Lights are dimmed for takeoff and landing- When you takeoff or land, don't you notice that cabin lights are dimmed? This is because of in case of an emergency, they don't dim the lights before, the eyes will not be adjusted to the dark, and in an emergency, it would be very bad news.

  5. The "Dings"- The dings we hear in the airplane are actually secret messages sent to the flight attendants!
