In July 2023, a passenger on an American Airlines flight from Dallas to Chicago went viral after exploding in a rant about a fellow passenger who she claimed was \u201cnot real.\u201d Her tirade became the talk of the town for weeks, rendering her a veritable internet star. Now, nearly a year later, the flier \u2014 Tiffany Gomas \u2014 is making the rounds yet again. On June 17, 2024, Gomas posted a video on Twitter\/X showing herself in the co-pilot\u2019s seat of an aircraft, seemingly flying the airborne vessel. \u201cWent from freaking out on a plane to flying one,\u201d she wrote alongside a series of crying-laughing emojis. \u201cWe\u2019re climbing!\u201d The craft\u2019s pilot can be heard saying off-camera from the seat next to her. \u201cDo you want me to give it back to you?\u201d Gomas asked \u2014 but the pilot declined, apparently letting her take control. Gomas\u2019s video has racked up over 670,000 views at the time of writing, sparking both panic and humor from viewers. She clarified some details in a response to her post, saying she was in a \u201cnon-critical phase of flight\u201d above 10,000 feet. \u201cThe only people on the flight were my family,\u201d she said, adding that she was headed back to America from a trip in Jamaica. \u201cYou\u2019ve come a long way,\u201d one viewer wrote. \u201cYou\u2019ll never know how much joy I got out of the freak-out video and all the memes that followed. In all seriousness, I\u2019m glad you could own it. Laugh about it and move on.\u201d \u201cGood job!\u201d another said. \u201cAs an airline captain, I can say conclusively: That plane is real.\u201d Overall, it seems that Gomas is taking the jokes in stride despite the many memes that were made mocking her. Even SNL parodied the viral incident in a skit \u2014 something she laughed at in a response online. Gomas has maintained that \u201cOne moment doesn\u2019t define you; but it can define your purpose,\u201d determined to make lemonade out of lemons after the \u201cvery worst moment\u201d of her life became the internet\u2019s biggest fixation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cNot real\u201d plane woman goes viral again by flying aircraft one year after meltdown X.com: Tiffany_GomasTiffany Gomas, the passenger behind the viral \u201cnot real\u201d plane rant, is taking social media by storm once again for seemingly flying an aircraft.
