I am afraid I was back in my UCS - The redundant FO took it for me!

Thanks for that, great shot of the console showing tail cam and nose wheel shots. Who's sister's house did they pass over ;)

Great video. I wonder if the "grab" the captain makes for the console is because of the bump, or because something was a little loose... ;)[:w]

Ahhh... reminds me of pre-9/11 days. My uncle was an FO with VS, and I went on several 'jollies' to LAX, HKG etc. Great fun, and sitting in flight-deck for take-off and landing was fantastic. I even had my own headphones and buttons that I could fiddle with. For the boring bit (cruise) I could wander back and sit in J, and be served dinner.. before returning up front to see what was happening.

Great days.. and never again. *sigh*

Great footage Albert, thanks for sharing it... [y]

Just out of interest - Did the FSM organise this for you or is the FO a friend or family member??

I was travelling as a companion - my partner asked the FO.

I second all the above - interesting to see what they are getting up to in the really sharp end.
