Aircraft guiding gestures inspire Chinese web craze (2)

On Sina Weibo, the number of tweets and retweets about the gestures hit nearly 8 million in a single day. Chinese Internet users posted a large number of pictures in which netizens mimicked the gestures in their homes and offices, often wearing pajamas and costumes.

One of the most frequently reposted pictures was of a crew member kneeling down on one knee with one of his arms bent back and the other extending in the direction to which his upper body is inclining. Two of his pointing fingers are guiding the pilot to take off from the deck.

"It is a gesture of strength, self-confidence and pride," said web user "sheeny17."
