And most importantly....
Touch the screens. If you touch them enough, they become touch screen activated.

The bus is loud below FL320. Anyone who says otherwise is already suffering hearing damage. The 'topless' crowd at NK proceed to turn the speaker 75% of the way up and still miss a significant amount of calls. This procedure is ridiculous and should be delayed to at least 300.
Anyone wearing ship headsets is also suspect in my mind as I'm not sharing anything that goes on my head with you dirty SOB's.
UFlyMike, Avee, DC Pro X, etc are very common in this airplane and well worth the cost of preventing, or from further worsening, tinnitus. But, if you do decided to go 'topless' at 180 don't expect me to do so as well. I can hear your callouts but don't expect me to engage in chit chat over the noise of the cockpit and my noise attenuation.
Do your retirement years and ears a favor and invest in a quality headset.
