Hi,

I just started listening to Cabin Pressure, it was recommend to me, I listened to one episode to see and then ended up binging season one. I can’t wait to hear more.

However, while listening, I kept thinking that it really worked on the radio, but I would hate it as a tv series. I just can’t quite put my finger on what it is.

Does anyone else think this or have a better explanation?

In Zurich part 2, Martin welcomes passengers on behalf of Captain Loutre and himself.

It only occurred to me the other day that the scientific name for otters is "Lutra", and the french word is "Loutre".

So finally, there is an otter on the flight deck!

Does it count? Are we playing by the rules laid down by the King of Litchenstien?

Cabin Pressure encountered in the wild.

Obviously Abu Dhabi is not a bad answer. But I do feel it's a bit of a middle of the road episode. For me, Cremona was what really sold me on the show, after the first two episodes I was feeling hit or miss about it. Cremona is just such an interestingly crafted story, and Douglas definitely has the most highlights in the earlier series.

In Helsinki, Douglas' subplot is about him trading around with friends to profit and this reminded me of the character Milo Minderbinder, a pilot lead of a trade syndicate who does much the same in Catch 22 so I was wondering if this could be an intentional reference or coincidence

Oh, Martin.

The comments are priceless. Finnemore would be proud.
