You have time to eat on the flight deck. Dreamy.
Convert Dec 1st, cant wait.
No disrespect to the 9, I enjoy having a map on my knee and constantly turning the knob to stay on track. I also enjoy setting my drink in the holder and watching the orange splash as glycol goes everywhere, the loud whistle that begins at rotation and does not mellow til FL210, the short legs and trying to get to the gate before I pee my pants. It will certainly give me bragging rights when the time comes.
