It can't be in Antarctica, it's not upside down!

[bradarmstrong]

Are they able to shut it down and restart it or do they have to leave it running?

[EvanPang-wi]

Um piloto desse era pra estar num transbordador pilotando pra o espaço.
Poucos podem fazer o que esse piloto fez 🤌✅

i wonder how cold it was
or the process to get the engines to run after being in the cold for so long lol

Any pilot who sits down in the cockpit of a Boeing is already being brave no matter where its going.
