Apple's iOS has a new feature where it shows live progress of your travel/flight near the top of the screen so I apparently have 16 minutes until my plane crashes.

[Intro]
Cheer up Alice, you know what they say?
Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best
And...
[Chorus]
Always look on the bright side of life
(Whistle)
Always look on the light side of life
(Whistle)
[Verse 1]
If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly, chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing
And...
[Chorus]
Always look on the bright side of life
(Whistle) (Come on!)
Always look on the right side of life
(Whistle)
[Verse 2]
For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word
You must always face the curtain with a bow
Forget about your sin
Give the audience a grin
Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow
[Chorus]
So always look on the bright side of death
(Whistle)
A-Just before you draw your terminal breath
(Whistle)
[Verse 3]
Life's a piece of shit (Oooh)
When you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's the joke, it's true (Oooh)
You'll see it's all a show (Oooh)
Keep 'em laughin' as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you (Oooh)
And...
[Chorus]
Always look on the bright side of life
(Whistle)
Always look on the right side of life
(Whistle) (C'mon Alice, cheer up!)
[Outro]
Always look on the bright side of life
(Whistle)
Always look on the bright side of life
(Whistle)
(Worse things happen at sea, you know?)
Always look on the bright side of life
(Whistle) (What have you got to lose?
You know, you come from nothing
You're going back to nothing
What have you lost? Nothing!)
Always look on the bright side of life
(Whistle)
(Nothing will come from nothing
You know what they say?)
Always look on the bright side of life
(Cheer up, ya old bugger
C'mon, give us a grin!
There y'are, see?) (Whistle)
(It's the end of the film)
(Incidentally, this record is available in the foyer)
Always look on the bright side of life
(Some of us got to live as well, you know?) (Whistle)
(All right, that's the lot, let's get this place knocked down
The whole show's dismantled in three weeks
Who do you think pays for all this rubbish?)
Always look on the bright side of life
(They'll never make their money back, you know
I told 'im, I said to 'im, "Bernie," I said, "they'll never make their money back.") (Whistle)
Always look on the bright side of life
@Alice Are we sure it's not a very very low-res trailer for Die Hard 2?
That's actually the AI telling you that it's taken control of the plane. Apple's answer to Copilot, a new feature.
Try voice commands next time. "Fly the plane straight, Siri." "I'm afraid I can't do that, Alice." Etc.
Merry Christmas.
I really don’t want to be nitpicky about this because I did find it helpful to be able to see my plane's progress while in the air, but the whole downward tilted plane thing is pretty weird.
It's a long black bar. Just make a cute little plane flying at a 0 degree angle moving across the black bar from left to right. Done.
@Alice I worked for some airlines briefly, and can confirm that symbol is the 'standard' for landing. (Gets used on tickets and airport signage) I always thought it looked crashy too. Planes don't land nose down!
@Alice I assume they just used the 🛬 utf-8 symbol, and in apple symbology it looks more crash-y than average
The diagram clearly shows that the plane will level out, do a 90 degree roll, and crash into the battery indicator.
@Alice I read 16 meters !
@Alice according to my watch it's about 10 minutes from now. Which is until you have a safe landing that is. No crashy-crashy. 🙏🙏👍👍
@quadrivial Saved by a water landing!
“In the unlikely event of a water landing, you can find sunscreen under your seats, and enjoy these bouncy slides that turn into boats!”
@Alice but now you know. And Knowing Is Half The Battle!
@Alice Please do not crash. Thank you.
@Alice safe landing and happy Christmas, Alice. Thanks for all the great photos this year. 📷🌲
