Experts show secret places on planes

The publication The Sun shared with air passengers information about the hidden functions in the aircraft that make the flight comfortable.

For example, the armrest at the aisle seems fixed. This is not true, because underneath it, next to the hinge, there is a secret button at the back of the chair that allows it to recline.
 
The function gives extra centimeters in place and simplifies getting up from the seat when the table is lowered.
 
Another secret is the black triangle on the side of the plane, marked with the best view of the wing. The main purpose is to quickly determine the porthole, from which a favorable angle on the wing is open for monitoring the position of the flaps by the crew members in case of failure of their sensors.
 
There is an emergency button on the plane to open the toilet. With its help, flight attendants in the event of an emergency can access the inside of the occupied toilet. Most often it is behind the sign “smoking is prohibited”.
 
There are handcuffs on board, they are kept by stewards, they are needed to neutralize undisciplined passengers. Most often these are cable ties.
 
If you want to go through the cabin, not grabbing the backs of the head restraints of sleeping passengers, some liners have handrails along the lower edge of the upper hand luggage boxes.
 
Many passengers are surprised by the presence of ashtrays in airplanes, as smoking is prohibited on board. But the cabin should have a safe place to extinguish cigarettes and other flammable items.
 
The planes are equipped with a beep-signal, stewards’ sleeping places, defibrillators in case of cardiac arrest, hooks on the wings to evacuate passengers.
