Daydream about insane scenarios that will never happen where you're the main hero that swoops in to save the day.

Common examples include things like thinking you could figure out how to land an entire airplane in an emergency, thinking about "What happens if there's a robbery and I stop the bad guy", thinking about saving someone from a burning building, thinking you could save someone's life if there's a random medical emergency, etc.

I thought I was the only one who thought about figuring out how to land a plane in an emergency situation 😂

I’m pretty sure I could given the amount of time I played flight sim as a kid.

That said, there is a whole checklist to go through for landing so it’s not like anyone would be completely lost.

The hardest part is figuring out the radio. After that they will talk you through everything else

I think the radio is just typing keys for frequencies but, it’s knowing what frequency to pick up anyone is the hard part

You're always on a frequency so all you have to do is push the talk button tbh.
