2] Approach checklist
1-P.A. cabin call: "Cabin crew 15 minutes to landing."
2-Cabin signs and exit lights: on.

Yeahhhhh ... that'd be on my list of things to do as a non-pilot or private ...

No doubt. Besides, a novice has no idea when we're 15 minutes out. Heck, 99% of the time, I hardly know when we're 15 minutes from landing and I've got probably 8500 hours and 8 years of airline experience.
My big fear if the captain conks out is what to do with the airplane. I'd hate to shut down the runway for an already dead captain, but I'd certainly hate to have to drag his 250lb body out of the left seat and learn how to use a tiller on the fly.

Somehow I think this has been more than just a theoretical discussion on a particularly long and boring leg... What I wanna know is how the conversation managed to segue into that topic. Or did it take a more deliberate direction, Doug?
