Missus in the copilots seat ready for a flight over the Bungles.
Pilot said to her "No matter what happens, even if we are going to crash DO NOT grab or touch the control stick."
There`s more to that story I`ll tell in another photo.

Nice pics mate. You need to post single pics in single posts So they can be voted on for the contest. 6 pics per contest posted as singles. My pic above 9f my before and after build of the GQ is a Collage single pic off my phone.

More on the dont touch the stick story.
Photo of the missus this time sitting in the co captains chair on the bridge of "Eagle" a cruise ship out of Strahan in Tasmania
The skipper said to her that she could have a play with the little stick (the joy stick on her right hand side) All functions of control are handled with this stick. Missus wouldn`t touch it. She then explained that as she had been told by a Chopper pilot never to touch the stick she wasn`t going to play with it. After the bridge settled down from the laughter, she did have a play and took control for a couple of minutes.
A couple of weeks later we were in the pub at Derwent Bridge when we had a chance meeting with the skipper. Yes, he remembered us. We had a very pleasant evening as we all dined together and shared some good stories over a couple of rums.
