So how will the typical requirement for sunblinds to be up for take off or landing to encourage situational awareness be met if the power to the things is interrupted? Will the cabin crew turn them off at night? (Or pretend night). And whilst I understand the removal of windows will add strength to the structure I​​​ struggle to understand how LCD's with the associated wiring and electronics will be lighter? Or are they planning on putting them on the existing IFE network which in my experience seems to succumb to technical problems far too often? OK maybe I'm old school and like the view but I think this idea will unleash the latent claustrophobia in everyone.
