in an aircraft, its best to minimize the number and type of unsecured items.

its all relative, if the vehicle shifts place in the air relative to momentum, loose things get tossed around in the cabin/the cabin gets tossed around against loose items.

this was exacerbated by the tight cabinspace, and probably about a half second to get the obstruction out. i used to see a lot of something like, a beverage bottle, or a coffee mug, roll up under the pedals of a vehicle, after falling out of the beverage holder.
