There's enough of a delay that they would probably be dead by the time it actually aired to see it. :lol
Easy now CB.

Just a guess, but I'm thinking you have never known anyone close to you who died in a plane crash and may have been watching those last few seconds before they hit the ground?

I think the windowless plane would actually be a better flying experience because most people on a plane with windows can't see out them anyway.
It looks to me like the windowless one actually gives one a better look outside the plane.
I'm not feeling that one me2. Because only maybe 1/4 to 1/3 can see out, it would be better if no one can? Is that like if I can't have a window seat, I don't think anyone should? LOL

And if you can't look outside, how is that a better look outside? :hmm But in our world where people think reality tv is reality, I guess a movie of the outside world might seem more real to people?

Where did I say it would better "if no one can" see outside. My point was that most people on a regular plane cannot see much of the outside whereas with the windowless plane everyone gets to see outside. You seem to understand that enough to be concerned about people seeing themselves crash.

How much and where can I buy :drool

I would pay extra to sit in this plane vs one I could not see outside.

Now I get it. I just missed the "better look for the people who can't see outside normally..." part. Now it makes sense to me. :thumb

You do realize that I was just asking questions to clarify your thought there, right? I suppose I could have left out the sarcasm regarding "if I can't see, no one should be able to," sorry.

Well, my tone does not always come off very good either- sorry . We good!!!
As regards the problem of seeing an impending crash... strictly speaking for myself, I would trade field of view and enhanced experience of flight for the very unlikely chance that I might see the plane crash, or nearly crash. Perhaps a delay would be a partial solution to this problem as it would allow pilots to switch the view at will. They could even have a loop ready of a really nice previous flight for people to watch while they dodge other planes, birds, falling satellites or alien space craft. The loop could be activated by the pilots heart rate. Of course this would lead to false activations when that hot flight attendant takes up the coffee.
