English term or phrase: ground source
Bonjour à tous,
Do not bang on the side of the aircraft to attract the attention of the cockpit crew.
In the event there are electrical storms in the area, DO NOT connect the interphone; the aircraft is like a giant lightning rod.
Although the aircraft does have static discharge ports, connection of the headset provides a ground source through the user.
Merci de votre aide
