Cockpit (2012 Film)
''Cockpit'' is a 2012 Swedish film directed by Mårten Klingberg. Plot After getting fired from his job as a pilot and dumped by his wife, Valle seeks to find a new job. Out of desperation on the job market he disguises himself as a woman in order to get a job from Silver, a company seeking a female pilot. The lines between his female and male life, as well as his personal and love life, starts to become a blur. Valle gets drawn deeper into the conspiracy when he accidentally becomes a national hero after a successful emergency landing. "She" is dubbed "an angel in the cockpit". Media celebrate "her" image as a role model for girls and a living proof that women handle mentally demanding jobs just as well as men. The bubble is popped when Valle's co-pilot comes forward, claiming that "the angel in the cockpit" panicked so bad that "she" had to be knocked unconscious in order for the plane to be landed safely. Black box recording confirms this version. The incident quickly bec ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

1 (one, unit, unity) is a number representing a single or the only entity. 1 is also a numerical digit and represents a single unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of ''unit length'' is a line segment of length 1. In conventions of sign where zero is considered neither positive nor negative, 1 is the first and smallest positive integer. It is also sometimes considered the first of the infinite sequence of natural numbers, followed by 2, although by other definitions 1 is the second natural number, following 0. The fundamental mathematical property of 1 is to be a multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. Most if not all properties of 1 can be deduced from this. In advanced mathematics, a multiplicative identity is often denoted 1, even if it is not a number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number; this was not universally accepted until the mid-20th century. Additionally, 1 is the s ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
