As I 6ft 4' ,17 stone man (110 kg) I regularly get called in to do the heavy lifting on flights by vertically challenged or slight passengers. I can't really refuse as I am a) British b) a nice guy c) my own wife is just 5ft tall and so know the frustration se has when people won't help her.The assumption of all those around the plane in uniform and civilians is, the big guy will help. Why ? we are the lighthouses of society
I am always asked for directions where ever I am in the world.
