Kind pilot ensures that couple got a glimpse of northern lights to celebrate their marriage proposal

A couple from the UK had a memorable flight experience when their pilot decided to circle the plane mid-flight so that passengers could witness the northern lights. Adam Groves, who is from the UK, and his fiancée Jasmine Mapp were returning to Manchester after a four-night trip to Iceland where Mapp had accepted Groves’ marriage proposal. The couple had spent their entire trip trying to see the aurora borealis but were unsuccessful.

During their flight home on an EasyJet plane, the natural phenomenon lit up the night sky. However, it was only visible to those sitting on the left side of the plane, opposite to where Groves and Mapp were seated. The couple would have missed the incredible sight if it wasn’t for the “very kind” pilot who offered to circle the plane 360 degrees so that everyone on board could see the lights. The lights have been visible over parts of the UK this week, according to BBC.

“We were hoping to see them while we were out there but we didn’t get the chance,” said Groves. “We took off, and halfway into the flight, the pilot turned all the lights off, and the view could be seen out the left window. But we were sitting on the right-hand side, and after a few minutes, the pilot switched back and did a 360 loop around for everyone to see.”

The couple described it as the perfect ending to their life-changing trip, following their engagement at a beautiful natural outlook on Iceland’s southern coast. “After days of jumping in the car at any opportunity to try and find the northern lights without spotting them, finally getting to see them in the sky was the perfect ending to a very special trip,” Mapp told BBC.

An EasyJet spokeswoman expressed happiness that the pilot was “able to perform a controlled maneuver” so that passengers could witness “one of nature’s greatest sights.”

  3. To keep the heating and lights on for their dog in the winter, dog owners may be spending close to £300 annually. In his studies, energy efficiency expert Dr. David Glew has observed numerous instances of people leaving the central heating on in their vacant homes to keep their pets warm. He cautions that having the heating on for a dog might increase the annual gas bill in a big family house by £240. Dr. Glew estimates that leaving the lights on for a pet in a few rooms for six hours a day may cost £50 a year with contemporary spotlights or £12 a year with LED lightbulbs. While leaving a fan on would only cost £5, leaving the air conditioning on throughout the entire house may cost hundreds more per year. The majority of healthy pets have enough fur to keep them warm, according to veterinarians, so turning on the heat or air conditioning is typically unnecessary. This month at the Cheltenham Science Festival, Dr. Glew, director of energy efficiency and policy at Leeds Beckett University, brought up the subject in a discussion. There is no need to leave the heater on for pets, he said, but if owners feel they must, they might think about solely heating the room the dog enjoys or lowering the thermostat or radiator dial. According to Energy Saving Trust research from 2015, 43% of pet owners leave the heat on for their animals.To keep the heating and lights on for their dog in the winter, dog owners may be spending close to £300 annually.
