Thirty minutes on the battery. It's all good. Maybe?

Spoken like a true lawyer. I wish I had the ability to do the same.

With over 3300 ocean crossings to and from Hawaii in every type of airplane that flies there, I must say I feel more safe and comfortable in a B737NG than those POS tired UAL B747-400, B-777 cattle cars, and B757 beer cans that have a problem getting off the f'ing gate. A working entertainment system sure is nice on a 5 hour flight.
