O to 2 - If your answers are true, you are a flying angel, not a flying arse. I hope to see you on my next flight.
I do not help others with their luggage... if you cannot handle it yourself, then check it. I also unbuckle my seatbelt on occasion before we have parked.
But, otherwise, a pretty good frequent flier!

5/24 But some of them are borderline.
If I really need to use the lav and we're in level flight, no turbulence for 30 minutes, and the captain hasn't turned off the sign, I'll get up and go rather than the alternative.
With my kids, I try to clean up the general area, but I'm not down on my hands and knees picking up every crumb.
Carry-on? OK, my rollaboard is 2" over in one dimension, but fits every overhead known to man, including an E70. Guilty.
Help you with your bag? Elderly, injured, etc.? OK. Poor little miss that packed a bag of bricks on a 30x20x10 "carry-on" - uh, no.

Scored a 2
I confess...I am an armrest hog. I also unbuckle my seatbelt before the plane gets to the gate.
I think the latter is a Detroit thing. Only on landing here do I hear a lot of those clicks, a lot fewer at other airports.

I scored 1/24 - this is also the one that I don't agree with.
If it's an elderly person who obviously needs help in getting their small bag up, no problem... but if it's someone who overpacked and was unwilling to check something that large, they should deal with it. I'm not throwing out my back because you decided to throw all that extra stuff in your bag...

On another note, I had a 6: seatbelt, shoes (occasionally), window(occasionally) and I forget the others.
