This is my favorite:

"No one officially dies in-flight unless there’s a doctor on board to make the pronouncement. On these very rare occasions, the crew will do everything possible to manage the situation with sensitivity and respect. Unfortunately, most flights are full, so it’s not always possible to move an “incapacitated” passenger to an empty row of seats. Singapore Airlines is the most prepared. Its planes feature a “corpse cupboard,” a compartment for storing a dead body if the situation arises.

FAs dont diagnose, just treat. We will treat a heart attack, we will treat a stroke, we will treat your symptoms, but we will not diagnose.

A fun read, and one does notice the seniority hierarchy on board (sometimes amusingly).
