On social media, people are reminded that even issues as fundamental as safety can spark debate. Beyond Teresa Piotrowska’s well-known misstatements about so-called headless planes, there are other memorable moments cited, such as Andrzej Halicki noting that the Polish government canceled a contract related to cockroaches.
