A sparrow appeared in the cabin of the plane, which is quite surprising. When flying, the cabin is a closed space and sparrows cannot fly in. If the cabin door is opened when the passenger plane is parked on the ground, it is possible for it to enter by mistake. But why did the sparrow appear mid-flight, and where was it before it was discovered? Some netizens speculated that someone brought it up, but this possibility cannot be ruled out.
Sparrows appeared in the cabin. The senior captain said that it would not have any impact on flight safety. Because there is a door in the cockpit, it cannot fly in and will not interfere with the driver's operation, not to mention that it will fly around and accidentally touch the buttons. If an airplane and a sparrow meet in flight, serious consequences may occur. Captain
’s explanation made netizens feel reassured and happy. They all came to joke: “Have you done the nucleic acid test ?” “Who am I, where am I, and where am I going?” “Created the sparrow world. "Three records of flight altitude, flight speed, and single flight distance." "What should I do if I get off the plane without accompaniment?" It's fate to meet them! Many bird lovers hope that the crew did not harm it and took it to a safe place to release after getting off the plane. Sparrows will survive well in most places, whether it is Chengdu, the final stop of this flight, or Hefei, where the flight stops.
A netizen said: This sparrow will have a long-distance relationship when it goes to another city. It seems that this netizen is a senior bird lover. Indeed, sparrows are monogamous and are a model couple among birds, raising their offspring together, and they seem to always be in the breeding season to ensure the stability and strength of the population. In other words, their lives are very hard and busy.
Sparrows are not good-looking, they are just "pockmarked sparrows". They originally had a bad reputation. They stole rice wheat and other grains, coupled with "fighting in groups", causing farmers heavy losses and unbearable disturbance. There was a time when it was listed as one of the "four pests" along with "flies, mosquitoes, and rats" and was to be eliminated. Later, some scientists "rehabilitated" them, because most of the time, they eat insects and protect crops.
Although a sparrow is small, it has all five internal organs; although a sparrow is small, it is also a beneficial bird. Currently, sparrows are included in the "Three Has" animals, which are terrestrial wild animals protected by the state and have important ecological, scientific and social values. It is protected by law and cannot be hunted at will.
In other words, if the sparrow entered the cabin by mistake, the crew could not harm it after catching it, and it should be released. If it was brought into the cabin by passengers, kept as a pet or used for other purposes, it would definitely violate relevant regulations.
Since this sparrow has attracted widespread attention, China Eastern Airlines might as well make an explanation and inform everyone of its follow-up, there should be no problem!
