I smoke weed, baby there is a difference between eclipse and Harley Comet. The later occur every 74years, if you see it once you might not see it again, I saw it in 1985 or there about. There is the possibilty of you seeing the former more than once.

Haley's Comet comes once in 75 years. The last sighting was in 1986 which I witnessed. My grandad witnessed it in 1910. Will I see the next one? Only God knows.

ighoosagie: if u can't comprehend 2 sentences it a shame on u. I clearly stated that she is alive but not around .
I pity d future of nija becos of u. U can't even pay attention to details.

YOU are the one giving me the details right? You said (and I quote) "ASSUMING YOUR MOM WAS AROUND" . . . My dear what I deduce from your statement is that your mom saw an eclipse ONCE before and IS NOT AROUND to see this one

This automatically means she has seen an eclipse only once and MAY NOT see another anymore because she is not around to see this one

Do you get my point for stating that "most people get to see it just once in their lifetime" ? Your own mom is an obvious example

So now who is the SHAME on? I pray ASUU call off their strike specially for your own good

kevoh: No it won't...Feel free to fly. Planes fly at Night and during the day nothing happens let alone a momentary blocking of the sunlight by the moon.

Planes depend on a host of parameters when flying QNH,QFE (pressure readings), cloud height e.t.c Therefore the blocking of sunlight for a few hours has no effect except the pilots decide to engage in watching the eclipse instead of concentrating on flying the plane instead.

I believe the Pilots in the house will have more info than I have.
wetin u dey talk, plane no dey get headlamp again,

Judging by most of the comments on this thread,you'd agree with me that most of us Nigerians are very foolish. The poster is asking a simple question on people's thoughts about flying today & people are talking trash. This is How we kill ourselves. If you know you can't satisfy or attend to the OP's curiosity, please keep quiet & don't lead him astray. Thanks.

You are the one that is the most foolish. Must u call people names to drive home your point?

gabrielmotors: I intend flying to Lagos today, just want people here to confirm if airlines will be operating today, knowing there will be a solar eclipse
best go to the airport and they will be in a better position to let you know.

I know i risk a ban doing this but I will ask you where were you when Auto Section was been sanitized years ago with verifiable dealer's name and address on this website? How many dealer's were bold enough to drop their details sticked on the front page then? You better find another way of marketing yourselves. grin grin Until YOU all go on that thread and condemn what inspired_m did,then I will take you serious.[/b]n
