Yeah - love the thought of getting that PA announcement "are there any pilots on board" after eating the fish dinner (of course I had to bring it on the plane myself )

I love to look in the cockpit while boarding the plane to see the pilots (still waiting to run acorss someone I know) and the avionics but I feel like I'm going to get run over from the people pushing from behind or the FA is going to give me a nasty look for trying to get a peek (like I'm a terrorist and checking out my target or something) so I just glance and continue to move on towards the coach seats! Certainly no time to actually stop and stick my head in to say hello.
