    I feel like every industry says that their staff are the horniest.

    Oh man, today Lemmy learned that "living planes" and such is a thing. "Living Aircraft" has like 5500 tags on e621 dating back to 2009. Reddit used to have r/dragonsfuckingcars, too.

    I don’t understand other comments’ confusion, this makes total sense to me.

    I'm getting confused by "those things". What things are we talking about? Are they talking about the plane, or something else.

    My father used to be an airline pilot and I know airline pilots can be a bit obsessive but it's not about the plane as much as it's about all the procedures and regulations. They mostly swear at the planes. Cabin crew mostly see it as just a job, with some bonuses that you don't normally get. Crew don't get assigned to a particular plane, they move around quite a lot, so they don't really get attached to one aircraft in the way that sailors may get attached to their ship.

    I think they're talking about the mechanics, viewing "those things" (the planes) as wives, the mechanics' autistic (<-complimentary) love transcending material and size, to reach around to lust.

    Sounds about right, to be honest.

    There might be a very good reason for that... regulations are often written in blood

    Pilots used to be pretty insane. I'd generally describe modern pilots as more obsessed with the privilege to fly than the actual procedure itself

    I think this is more appropriate in the brand new sentence community.

    So one of us has had a brain aneurysm, because that's sentence makes absolutely no sense.

    "Everyone who works in aviation wants to fuck these things" these things = the planes, "wants to fuck" = is overly emotionally attached to the plane. "every plane that crashes is a wife who dies" = the technicians will dearly mourn the "death" of the plane, and don't want it to happen in the first place.

    Less likely to die on a bus than a plane. Less likely to be injured on a plane than a bus.

    The correct word in this situation is waifu.

    ...can we get some people who work in aviation to confirm or deny this allegation? I'm going to assume it's true till then and y'all kinda perverts.
