So is that what Boeing sees us as......?
While testing, if you crash, I guess you get Mashed Potatoes vs Human Remains.
From the airline standpoint, sacks of potatoes make better than average passengers- no complaints, no lawsuits, no lost baggage.

And then, do Idaho spuds make better/worse passengers than Yukon Gold?

Boeing uses potatoes to improve Wi-Fi signals
When Boeing Co. needed to test out in-flight wireless signals on full planes, they couldn't ask humans to sit motionless for days at a time while they conducted experiments. So they found an unusual substitute for people: the potato. Turns out that human beings have many more similarities to potatoes than you'd think.
