As a bit of vibration makes it a bit more exiting, the BA marketing department made a study back in 1987, which showed that a bit of exitement brought PAX back again and again.

The B734's where therefore fitted with a 'Vibrating PAX tittalating device' which is activated immediatly after take off.

Unfortunately the price of the VPTD unit has skyrocketed in recent years and hasn't been fitted to any other aircraft types.
