Instead of movies and crappy games on those in-flight displays, they should just stream the view out the cockpit window. (lemmy.ml)

Like, I'm on a plane. I don't want to watch Toy Story when I can do that at home, I want to see what the pilots see. And that way every seat has technically a window to look out of.

Me on my flight from Seoul to Stockholm: "oh look, grassy plains. I must be over Russia!"
13 hours later: "oh would you look at that, more grassy plains, still over Russia 😒" Flying over Russia is like flying over the ocean except it's grass.
